Every year, Arizona Farm Bureau provides a solid lineup of workshops, speakers, and presentations for our members at our annual meeting. Even though our physical meetings have been abbreviated to account for COVID precautions, our extra educational and informational content has not. This means we have even more business, leadership, and industry development workshops coming your way for the next several weeks beginning Wednesday, November 4th!

 

Every Wednesday between November 4 and December 16, we’ll bring you live virtual workshops covering all the topics you’re used to seeing at our Annual Meeting. With a dynamic keynote speaker, an address from President Smallhouse, an update from Farm Bureau Financial Services, a panel on water, and so much more, you’ll have the chance to tune in live as we update you on all you need to know about the Arizona agriculture industry as we round the corner into 2021. You simply have to register. 

 

Plus, since we’re virtual we can extend an opportunity to all our members, at no cost! Anyone is welcome to participate in the series that runs through December 16 th. Our dynamic list of presenters has also agreed to hold live Q&A sessions at the end of each presentation, so you’ll be able to ask your questions in real-time. (But don’t worry if you can’t log on at the scheduled time – we’ll record these so you can watch at your convenience, too!)

 

And did we mention: it’s all free? All thanks to our partner sponsors for the lineup, including Farm Bureau Financial Services, Kimberly Clark , Arizona Ford Dealers and Sanderson Ford .
