Climate Change and Fruit Trees - How Do We Prepare with Greg Peck, and Food Preservation with Joel MacCharles

Greg Peck of Cornell University discusses how climate change is going to affect the way we grow our fruit trees.

And...what to do with your bumper crop with Joel MacCharles of wellpreserved.ca.
