Abstract
In Illinois more than 64 types of vegetables and 15 fruit and nut crops are grown. These specialty crops produce nearly $500 million in sales for farmers. To support growers during the pandemic in 2021 with timely information, Commercial Ag Educator, Elizabeth Wahle collaborated with Horticulture Educator, Andrew Holsinger to provide an online format for growers to view the 2021 Southern Illinois Fruit and Vegetable Conference. Sessions were prerecorded and edited using Adobe Premiere Pro. Closed captioning was added to the presentations using Otter.ai. Captions were supplied to the presenters for review. Open captions were added to some presentations for clarity of technical information. OBS was used during the Zoom meeting to supply a playlist of the content that was synchronously presented. Since the sessions were already prerecorded and captioned, it made for an easy transition to provide the content for asynchronous delivery on YouTube. During 2021, the conference had 120 virtual attendees and the virtual offering allowed consistency of the annual program.
