NEWS IN A NUTSHELL
#WeAreBlueDiamond2023 Social Media Activity Blue Diamond Almond Breeze Extra Creamy debuted on the shelves of acclaimed Australian retailer Coles in September! The Blue Diamond Growers co-op unites almost 3,000 almond growers from the Central Valley of California, working to ensure that the legacy of almonds is carried on to future generations with pride. The Blue Diamond Growers Foundation was proud to award scholarships to 25 agricultural, change-making students for the 2023-2024 academic year. We debuted a
“Welcome to the Orchard” series for the 2023 Almond Harvest season, showcasing the dedication of our co-op growers and giving an inside look at the processes that craft our premium almonds. Deion “Coach Prime” Sanders teamed up with the Almond Board of California for the “Own Your Prime” social media campaign. They also put together a great infographic on each step our almonds take from the tree to your table. Representatives from the California Manufacturers & Technology Association braved the heat wave this summer to visit some of the growers’ orchards. Growers also hosted our summer interns so they could learn the almond planting, harvesting and shelling processes firsthand!
