The contest was sponsored by the State Department of Agriculture and Markets and
the New York State Vegetable Growers. The award was presented at the NYS Vegetable
Conference meeting held Feb. 9-11 at the Holiday Inn Hotel in Liverpool, and is presented
to items produced, packed and marketed at retail level in New York State.
"DeLyser brings to the produce industry over 25
years of experience in purchasing and sales with DeLyser Brothers," said officials.
In 1996, DeLyser started his own business, JD Produce, which specializes in packing and
wholesaling potatoes, onions, cabbage and watermelon for distribution to chain stores. JD
Produce also supplies the local fruit stands and restaurants with quality products at
wholesales prices 12 months a year.
JD Produce recently moved and expanded the operation to include a retail farm market
and garden center (The Corner Market) at Pound Road. John's mother Elizabeth got him
interested in the business years ago.
