While misting is practiced worldwide, the National Produce Misting Day is celebrated mainly in the USA.
National Produce Misting Day is celebrated by the Corrigan Corporation of America every year to acknowledge the importance of innovative engineering that helps in misting vegetables.
The Corrigan Corporation of America started celebrating National Produce Misting Day in 2018, but the National Day Calendar recognized the day officially in 2019.
The Corrigan Company started the National Produce Misting Day in 2018 to share the fascinating history behind the invention of the automatic misting system that brings fresh produce to local stores.
In 1979, the Carrot Top produce market owner, Jack Corrigan, got the first patents for automatic produce misting systems. His son, Mike Corrigan, brought those innovations into the market, and his innovations proved to be revolutionary for the produce market, leading to lesser wastage of produce. To acknowledge the innovations, Corrigan Corporation started the National Produce Misting Day.
On National Produce Misting Day, local farmers tell fascinating stories about the process of misting if someone visits them. On the way back, you can also pick some fresh produce on your own and take care of it following the farmer's directions.
The most basic way to celebrate the National Produce Misting Day is by getting your fingers misted. Try picking up some favorite fresh produce to try something new.
You can also try making new recipes with the exotic vegetable stock that your grocer has stored for you. Cooking exotic foods and feeding your friends and family doubles the fun.
You can also add a layer of moisture in your garden soil to cool down the outside for your plants.
Misting is the process of spraying water on crops. It keeps the fruits and vegetables fresh and retains the veggies' crispiness.
In the grocery world, misting technology results beneficial for business. Innovative tools are used for keeping fruits and vegetables misted. The dried-out veggies absorb moisture when misted, which increases their weight. Since items are sold by weight, the residual pound added by water increases the profit of the local grocer.
The National Produce Misting Day, celebrated on October 2, recognizes the importance of keeping the produce fresh. Between fresh produce and tired produce, customers always choose fresh produce.
Not many obstacles are faced during National Produce Misting Day.
Celebrating a day that glorifies keeping crops fresh indirectly supports the farmers who spend so much effort throughout the year to grow stocks and keep them fresh.
Many people have followed the hashtags related to National Misting Day on social media because the day celebrates fresh food and a healthy lifestyle. All the health enthusiasts create a lot of buzz on this day.
