| The Washington Growers Clearing House Association
represents 2,200 fruit growers. Governed by a board of fruit growers elected
from 24 growing districts in north central Washington, Yakima Valley, and the
Columbia Basin, it publishes a weekly bulletin tabulating prices obtained by
the participating regional marketing organizations and shippers for apples,
pears and cherries which is distributed to its membership. The sales figures
are listed by variety, size, storage, grade and price. This information is
tabulated yearly to provide year-end summaries. The grower group discusses
fruit marketing, prices and supplies. The Washington Growers Clearing House
Association also represents growers' interests in legislative and regulatory
issues at the state and federal levels. Clearing House staff and board members
frequently testify and participate at legislative and regulatory meetings.
