This book contains the proceedings of the Ontario Fruit Growers Association's annual meeting in 1902. Of particular note is the discussion on the role of local fruit growers associations in disseminating information in the industry, which at the time was divided between horticultural societies dedicated mostly to floriculture and improving civic spaces, and farmers' institutes covering a broad range of agricultural topics. This book provides an overview of the formation of over 30 new associations, and the organization of 50 orchard meetings to share best practices. The proceedings also contain reflections on the topics of orchard cultivation, fruit packaging techniques and improvements in fruit spraying, revealing the diverse areas of focus for fruit growers of the time.
