July 30, 2021 – We were very excited to welcome our 2021-22 Leadership Group to Grand Rapids this week, where they kicked off the program with two full days of discussion on a wide range of issues facing Michigan agriculture. This year’s Leadership Group has persevered through a unique challenge, having originally planned to be together more a year ago before the program was delayed due to COVID-19. We are glad to have this group back together and look forward to our upcoming sessions in Lansing, Washington and Detroit! Leadership Group participants pictured are (L to R): Cody Harris, Star of the West Milling Company; Keith Leighton, Co-Alliance; Claire Zahm, Zeeland Farm Services, Inc. (ZFS); Dave Chamberlin, Vita Plus Corporation; Jason Sawatski, Nutrien; and Mackenzy Blair, Michigan Agricultural Commodities. Thank you to our presenters! We’d also like to say “thank you” to leaders spanning our Michigan agriculture industry who joined our group for this special meeting, and lent their expertise to the discussion, listed here.
