Re: Dragon Fruit
From my good friend, an email notice today:
Quote:
Dear Pitahaya/Dragon Fruit Lovers,
I know you are looking forward to our next Dragon /Pitahaya Fruit Festival. This year the Festival will be organized by UC SouthCoast Extension under the direction of Ramiro Lobo. The location is at the South Coast Field Station -7601 Irvine Boulevard
Irvine, CA 92618
The dates for this great festival are: Friday August 24th, Saturday, August 25th and Sunday the 26th.
Friday there will be lectures geared mostly to the serious growers and enthusiasts. Saturday will be more for the public in general (as always) with lectures, field trips and fruit tastings. Sunday there will be tours of the ranches of growers willing to open their doors to us.
As usual there will be charge to the attendants for this program. Remember these charges are to cover the cost and help to maintain the pitahaya/dragon fruit collection.
This is just a brief explanation of what is to come so that you may set aside these dates. We don’t want anyone to miss this wonderful event.
The program and more information will be posted by Ramiro Lobo in the future. If you would like to open your garden for tours or have any information to share get in touch with Ramiro- [edit out email address to help avoid bots from spamming him]
Thanks so much,
Edgar Valdivia
