    Congrats! to all those selected to participate in this training conference. I’m sure you’ll learn a lot from the presenters and perhaps even more from each other. I do hope you’ll have time to interact with some Chicago urban consumers who are enjoying the fruits of your labor…nutritious, healthy food at reasonable prices.
