Seeing Old Friends In Ft. Myers

Berner OilIt’s been about 15 years since Cindy and I moved to Missouri from Florida. I do miss my home state so getting a chance to blog the Citrus Expo for Southeast AgNet has been a treat. I just ate a blackened grouper supper and my dessert was a second slab of grouper! One of the cool things about Citrus Expo is running into a bunch of people I used to know and have missed. One of them is Carl Berner, Berner Oil. He’s pictured here in between his sons.

Carl is a first time exhibitor at Citrus Expo and a sponsor of today’s Beast Feast lunch. Carl says he wanted an opportunity to interact with the people involved in citrus production since his company was founded with a committment to supporting Florida agriculture.

He says his company is looking into new energy alternatives like ethanol and biodiesel and works hard at staying on the cutting edge with technology to meet the needs of his customers. You can hear my interview with him here: Listen To MP3 Carl Berner Interview (3 min MP3)
