Tropical Fruit Discussion / International Online Fruit Group - 1st Presentation!
« on: February 11, 2012, 11:01:46 PM »
We have started up an online Tropical Fruit Group known as International Tropical Fruit Growers. The goal of this group is similar to that of the local tropical fruit club such as the rare fruit council who have in person meetings with presentations but the main difference is that our presentations are all online! It will now be possible for tropical fruit enthusiasts from around the world to view and participate in the meetings which were previously restricted to a small number who lived close enough to the meetings and had the free time.
Here is how it works:
A week or so before the meeting we will put up the youtube video(s) of that months speaker(s) so everyone will be able to watch the video at their convenience.
The meetings which are a Q&A with the speaker from the youtube video will be done solely through a Google+ hangout. In order to join and view the Google+ hangout, all you have to do is become a follower of the International Tropical Fruit Growers google+ page.
The questions will be asked through private message to one of the moderators of the "hangout" which will then be asked to the speaker who will answer live.
Our first presentation will be Noel Ramos's "Tropical Fruit Safari from Puerto Rico" that he presented to the BRFVC earlier this month. I am not sure of the meeting date as yet but the video is up. Please follow the google+ page to get the youtube link! Thanks! We appreciate your support!
*We are looking for people who are willing to do video presentations on various tropical fruit related topics. Please message or email me if you are interested.*
