I will turn it over to Jodi now.

Thank you.

Thank you all for attending tonight, and I appreciate your interest in food systems.

I don't know that it existed when I was in school, and I studied plant biology, as you just said, and I studied science, and what I learned was I'm a systems thinker.

And so I sort of backed into food systems work as I built a passion for for what it is I'm interested in.

And a lot of that was triggered by sort of having kids and my and lifestyle change that happened during my life, which happens for a lot of people, I think, when they start really tuning into their food system.

So I'm the executive director of FarmWise Indiana.

Yeah, Jodi, would you share more about your point of view on this?
