The National Fruit Trials at Faversham, Kent, England is celebrating its 50th Anniversary in October of this year. In 1922, the Ministry of Agriculture and the Royal Horticultural Society took the first steps to establish the trials, believed to be the first in the world, at the Royal Horticultural Society's Gardens at Wisley. In 1952, the trials were moved to the Brogdale Farm just south of Faversham at a more favorable climate location. The first' director was A. N. Ramer, who was succeeded in 1936 by J. M. S. Potter. Later this year P. H. Harding will become the director.
