Thank You, Anne
Sarah Makiejus Global Marketing Manager
PanAmerican Seed President Anne Leventry attended one last CAST party – it wasn’t goodbye, but a way to say Thank You! To her surprise and delight, our team gathered together in her honor for Anne’s final Spring Trials in California.
It was a way to give her our best, and let her know she’ll always be a part of the PanAmerican Seed family. Below are a few photos from the evening.
Happy Trails, Anne! And all the best in your retirement!

We will miss her words of encouragement and inspiration!

Outside the venue as everyone was arriving, a rainbow appeared in the sky. There couldn't have been a more perfect send off.

As a unique gift, a plate given by the Lekkerkerk family of JHL Group was presented to Anne. Only a handful of these are made and given to special people to honor them.
