Here are more images from The Packer’s Global Organic Produce Expo 2022 event in Hollywood, Fla., collected by Tom Karst, editor emeritus for The Packer.

The show returned in-person Jan. 31-Feb. 2, at the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.

More than 500 registrants enjoyed education sessions, the expo’s tradeshow, the breakfasts, lunches, dinners, BizMatch sessions, a 1980s jam band opening reception and a poolside closing reception — not to mention the fabulous venue and weather.

On the tradeshow floor, companies at more than 70 booths touted organic products and services.

More than 100 buyers attended — that’s about one-fifth of the attendees.
