In the past year, I may have been grounded from speaking at agricultural meetings due to the pandemic; however, Zoom meetings have continued. While it’s been great to be able to continue to share information with various commodity groups, the one thing that has lacked from a digital experience is being able to truly connect with our agricultural community.
In short, I’ve missed the networking, fellowship and exchanging of information at ideas in person at agricultural events. After all, the best conversations are had, not during the educational sessions, but in the hallways following the presentations, over lunch, after the evening auction and with morning coffees before the meetings begin again.
