Governor Walker Bids Agriculture and Food Employees Farewell


Governor Walker shows off a framed photo presented to her by
Commissioner Peterson. The photo is a montage of pictures taken
during an earlier visit to the department.

Governor Olene Walker praised UDAF employees for their dedicated and professionalism during her Dec. 14 farewell visit.

The department employees gathered in the building’s main lobby to hear the governor, Lt. Governor, Gayle McKeachnie and Chief of Staff, Gary Doxey thank them for their service during their time in office.

Governor Walker recounted her earlier visit to the department during National Agriculture Week where she helped draw attention to her Watershed Initiative and kick off Take Pride In Utah.

During her Dec. 14th visit she highlighted her recommended budget that included wage increases for state workers who hadn’t received adequate raises in three years. She also acknowledged that UDAF workers were among the lowest paid state employees in Utah.

Commissioner Peterson presented the governor with two CD’s containing a video and still pictures that summarized her year-long watershed initiative. He also presented her with a framed photo montage of her earlier watershed visit that included the statement, “Governor Olene S. Walker, 2004 Watershed Initiative, from your friends at the Utah Department of Agriculture and Food.”
