Broccoli is the future of food

Producers Rebecca Davis and Matt Toder of NBC Universal visited our trial site in Geneva to film a segment for their new feature on The Future of Food.  The future does look bright for broccoli! Thanks for making us part of the story.

NBC filmed a segment for The Future of Food at the Eastern Broccoli trial site at Cornell University's NYSAES in Geneva NY.

Funded again!

The Eastern Broccoli Project was successful in its renewal application, so we are moving ahead for another five years. We were awarded two years of funding and approved for an additional three years. Thanks very much to all the collaborators who made this such a high-ranking application, and to the USDA-NIFA Specialty Crops Research Initiative for funding it.
As we ramp up activities during September, you will see more news on this blog.
