SPOKANE, WA - The delicious taste of a vibrant, juicy cherry is a direct reflection of the hard work that was put into growing it. Recently, Peirone Produce set out to highlight dedicated farmers throughout the Pacific Northwest with its Taste Local campaign. Gaining traction across the region, the campaign recently garnered the attention of Congresswoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers, who paid a visit to the supplier’s facilities to explore the company and meet a number of its employees.
