Then join friends for a tour of the special Chef’s Gardens and stunning grounds created by Master Landscaper, Raymundo O’Campo.

Meet and talk with our conference keynote, Katie Pinke, Ag Week’s publisher, columnist, communications consultant, and speaker. When asked about her title Katie said, “Farmer’s daugher, wife and mom from North Dakota best explains me!”

Come and get the facts from five panelists.  Learn how they address the misconceptions about their portion of the food chain and address consumer concerns about food and nutrition.

The four afternoon breakout sessions offer education and information about trends in labeling, ride along with the Arizona Department of Agriculture, growing Arizona’s economy and handling those On-line Snipers.
