WASHINGTON COUNTY ENTRIES AT THE REGION PECAN SHOW

  

28 entries from the Washington County Pecan show in November advanced to the 2017 East Region Pecan Show in Cuero, Texas.  Their pecans were evaluated for quality and variety characteristics to determine the best pecan in each category, division, and overall.  A panel of three Extension Pecan Specialists spent the day evaluating each entry submitted from counties across south east Texas.  All Washington County exhibitors who advanced from the county show to the regional show placed with one or more of their entries.  They will now advance to the 2018 Texas Pecan Growers Association competition in Frisco, Texas taking place in July.  The winning entries from Washington County were:
