Colleague Mark Gaskell has put together a CE caneberry extension event this coming April 13 that will overshadow any caneberry meeting we have ever planned before. 

An A list of researchers from the sectors public and private from around the country will present on :

Caneberry market overview

Primocane blackberries

Caneberry disease and insect management

Nutrient status of primocane blackberries

Evolution of the caneberry industry on the Central Coast

Redberry mite

Blackberry production in Mexico

Three new raspberry varieties promising to shake up industry

Caneberry irrigation and nutrient uptake

I will certainly be there - if you want to be up to date on caneberries in California you probably want to find time to be there too.

Meeting will be held at the San Luis Obispo Veterans Memorial Hall, San Luis Obispo and will go from 730 am to 115 pm on April 13.
