Episode Synopsis
As chair of the Ontario Apple Growers, Chris Hedges shares an overview of the provincial apple industry – its investments in high-density orchards, desirable apple varieties, controlled atmosphere storages and modern packing lines.
The Grower is Digging Deeper behind the May 2025 cover story titled 'Wind’s up and the weather is rising for Canadian apple growers' and checking in with Chris. Representing 200 growers, Hedges says they are ready to meet the moment with consumers looking for locally-grown produce in the face of U.S. tariff threats. With favourable spring conditions, he’s looking forward to a “fantastic” crop.
