Keeping members on top of market developments, assocation activities and industry news is the goal of the Northarvest Bean Growers Association’s communications program. In an effort to meet those goals in 2000, the Association published five issues of the Northarvest Bean Grower; distributed Talking Beans, a market newsletter, at key intervals; compiled reports from scientists who are conducting dry bean research funded by the association in a publication called Research Report 2000, and maintained a Web site at www.northarvestbean. org The Northarvest Communication Committee directs the communications program.
