Hi Tanya,

I wanted to send you this link for employment from 3 Star Lettuce. We are looking for a Product Development Rep to do Springmix and Specialties. The link is from Blue Sky Search. I figured that there might be some students looking for employment before graduating. Of course there is extensive travel involved. I hope all is well.

Thank You.
