Welcome to Valley Vision's food and agriculture newsletter!
In the July issue of Food for Thought, we share information about two upcoming events bringing awareness to our region's food and ag economy, encourage you to give Valley Vision some feedback on our communications approach, and remind you of an upcoming deadline for a big water efficiency grant.
We welcome your suggestions and feedback. If you have events you would like listed, please send them to Adrian Rehn. Enjoy!
