 A SPECIAL INVITATION FROM IDAHO GROWERS

The second Postsecondary Deans and Directors Retreat will be held in Chicago, February 21-23, 2014 with a topic of "Managing Change."  More information can be found at

 

The first night of the Retreat attendees are invited to a very special reception at Kendall College featuring food and beverages of Idaho and special media guests.

 

What makes Idaho agriculture so unique?  It's the environment and Idaho's people.  Nature's bounty provides the perfect growing conditions.  Idaho's rolling hills, mountain spring water, gentle rains, warm sunshine, and cool nights, combined with state-of-the-art technology and dedicated people produce superior agricultural products.

                                      

The state's 25,000 farmers and ranchers produce over 185 different commodities.  Idaho is ranked in the top ten in the nation for the production of over 25 different crops and livestock. Idaho is also home to cutting-edge research programs which stimulate innovation and provide agronomic and environmental enhancements along with productivity gains and product improvements to maintain a competitive edge. The commitment of Idaho's commodity commissions and industry research has fostered public-private partnerships and keeps Idaho agriculture on the leading edge of new developments.

 

What's Grown in Idaho?

 

Potatoes, Onions, Beef, Lamb, Pork, Honey, Dairy, Legumes, and more!

 

This is an amazing opportunity to enjoy wonderful food and experience the bounties of the State of Idaho at no additional cost to the Retreat attendees!
