Fresh From Florida Chef Justin Timineri offered up numerous tasty tidbits, once again a crowd pleaser at the big Fresh From Florida
exhibit area in the huge Produce Marketing Association (PMA) Fresh Summit 2014. Held this week in Anaheim, California, the Florida Department of Agriculture’s Fresh From Florida program once again offered its members a great opportunity to work together to attract major attention at the show. It’s the biggest of its kind in the country, attracting a record crowd this year of more than 22-thousand attendees from around the world. PMA’s Fresh Summit gives farmers, their marketers, and buyers from all around 
the globe a chance to do business in a festive atmosphere where they can also share and try out all 
kinds of new and exciting food items, recipes and other associated food product lines. The food and particularly the produce industry continues to change the way it does business, in order to give consumers what they want, when they want it. Farmers and other members of Fresh From Florida gain an edge for their market positioning efforts due 
to some interesting advantages the program offers them, as you’ll hear in this short but very informative interview with Chef Justin and Florida Dept of Agriculture Marketing Director Susan Nardizzi. We sat down with the two of them near the end of a very busy third day of the four day show.
