If you have specific questions for any of the presenters, please feel free to email me and I will pass them along to them for their response. If you would like a copy of the Idaho Onion Growers' Newsletter related to CFAP information and websites,  drop me an email at rick@amgidaho.com.
 
LIA Trustee Travis Lammers, Vice Chairman of the LIA Alumni Activities Committee announced that LIA will continue to have monthly calls related to educational updates. The first one is scheduled for Thursday, June 25 at 9:00 AM (MT). If you have subjects that you would like to have addressed let me know.
 
Does this mean there will be no more COVID Information calls? No, that is not the case, but we will see how various topics surface related to Idaho Re-opening.
 
Have a good June.
