On April 12, 2025, the FNRIC participated in the 65th UC Davis Picnic Day event. Picnic Day is an annual open-house event, where attendees have a hands-on opportunity to learn about the different majors and programs at UC Davis.  The Fruit and Nut Research and Information Center tabled right outside the Plant and Environmental Sciences Building, quizzing attendees on their knowledge of pomological science and offering pistachios, walnuts, pins, stickers, magnets, temporary tattoos, and more to those who answered correctly. We shared information about our services with hundreds of visitors at Picnic Day.

We would like to thank sponsors at Wonderful Pistachios and the California Walnut Board for providing snack prizes for our Picnic Day booth.

Congratulations to the lucky winner of our giveaway! Make sure to stop by next year to pick up more goodies. Visit https://picnicday.ucdavis.edu/ to find more information about the next Picnic Day.
