PEAR and apple growers, as well as those from throughout the supply chain, gathered last night to kick off the 2016 National Horticulture Convention on the Gold Coast.
The social networking event was hosted by Apple and Pear Australia Limited (APAL) and provided an opportunity for members to interact before the formal information sessions tomorrow.
APAL will host its annual general meeting this afternoon before the official Convention and trade show opening this evening.
