Phil Tregunno navigates new ground for vaccinating seasonal workers

The Grower Calling

The chair of the Ontario Tender Fruit Growers overcame initial resistance by his seasonal agricultural workers to get vaccinated. With a couple days to ruminate over printed flyers and face-to-face meetings, all of his 71-member crew from Niagara-on-the-Lake consented and were inoculated on March 22, 2021. Karen Davidson, editor of The Grower, goes 'Behind The Scenes' of the April 2021 cover story titled 'VEXED BY THE VAX: ROLLING OUT WORKER INOCULATIONS' and speaks with Phil Tregunno.
