Opal Apples making appearances at local events in major cities
The focus of the events is to raise awareness of Opal by getting the apple in consumers’ hands, along with spreading the word about the Opal Youth Make a Difference Initiative which is currently accepting grant applications for a second season. Anchored by brand ambassadors handing out apples and the colourful Opal apple cart, events have been hosted in Portland, Houston, Boston and Minneapolis with several more events to come.
The Minneapolis and Boston events are co-hosted with Chop Chop Magazine, the cooking magazine for families. These events focus on sampling and demonstrations of simple preparations of Opal apple and ways to get kids involved and interested in healthy foods. Opal and Chop Chop also hosted a party with cooking demonstrations in Minneapolis with about 40 attendees from the local food community.
In addition to the public events, consumers and bloggers have been hand-selected to host private Opal parties. The Opal parties have been a huge success and are sought after by Opal fans looking to spread the word about Opal apples. Kits contain Opal themed décor, serve ware, recipe cards, an apron, and of course, Opal apples. Opal also has a Pinterest board dedicated to showing fans how to host their own Opal party.
