Growing Innovation: Fresno State Fields a Better Trellising Solution

California State University, Fresno has a 1,000-acre farm near its campus that doubles as a classroom and laboratory. Which makes sense, located smack dab in the heart of California's fertile Central Valley, Fresno State is situated where 40% of America's fruits and nuts are grown.

At the Fresno State Jordan College of Agricultural Sciences and Technology, they grow grapes, nuts, seasonal vegetables, stone fruit, olives, and more on that 1,000-acre plot. Providing students with hands-on experience while testing and researching the latest technologies and innovations.

So, when it came time to replace aging chemically treated wood posts at their olive orchard, they figured why not give Harvest Pillar a try.

Concrete is a great alternative to chemically treated wood posts and steel. Harvest Pillar is more durable, weather-resistant, and doesn't need to be coated with harmful chemicals to increase longevity.
