Diana said “I truly believe that my WEDC 60 hour class and the friends that I made in the class have been a blessing.  I gained a lot of knowledge in the 60 hour and continue to gain knowledge through their classes offered.  Cynthia and my friends that I made in the class have been a wonderful sounding board in helping me make decisions to make my farm grow.”
