This free, in-person event hosted on June 25, 2024 at 7:00 PM is a part of UW-Madison's 175th anniversary celebrations, hosted by the Wisconsin Foundation & Alumni Association. No registration is necessary to attend.This talk is a crash course in how the geography, climate, sociology, and farming culture of Wisconsin combine to make the most productive cranberry region in the world.
Presenter Allison Jonjak grew up on a cranberry marsh founded by her grandfather in 1939. Studying ag engineering and soil chemistry, she worked with row crop farmers until the University of Wisconsin created a Cranberry Outreach Specialist position. This allowed Allison to return to her favorite state and work keeping a tight feedback loop between growers and researchers of her favorite crop.
