logo The Mississippi Fruit & Vegetable Growers Association is a group of commercial fruit and vegetable growers with a vested interest in promoting the fruit and vegetable industries in Mississippi. It is coordinated by a Board of Directors (see below) which meets periodically to chart the path of this group. Some of the main activities each year are a four-state growers' conference, a tour to one of our successful local farms, and a 2-day tour to another part of the country.
