2020 AHS Inspection Tour Thank You!.
The AHS Board of Directors and Central Office staff wish to express their sincere appreciation to the site hosts for making the 2020 inspection tour so successful.
We are deeply indebted to those farms that serve as inspection site hosts this past summer and fall. The tremendous amount of work involved in hosting one of these events is staggering, and these volunteer hosts deserve our gratitude for their efforts and time. Without such generosity, we would not be able to hold a tour. On behalf of the Society, and especially those members who attended the 2020 tour, thank you to all our host farms.
