We invite you to join us at our Winter Farmers’ Markets & Meals starting this November. Our markets are an opportunity to share a meal made from locally produced ingredients with others in your community, purchase products directly from local farmers and producers, learn about sustainable farming practices and build connections with our vendors. We are sponsoring a total of 13 Markets this year in both the Madison and Milwaukee areas. Check out our schedules and join us!

If you are interested in hosting an event in your faith community see our Winter Farmers’ Market Overview for Congregational Hosts and contact one of our Coordinators.
We will be hosting a follow-up meeting to the Rural Listening Sessions held in five Southwestern Wisconsin locations in February/March of this year. We want to nurture seeds planted at these sessions and identify some ways to respond to issues identified in the summary report “Looking into the Future of Southwest Wisconsin.”
The findings in this report will be the foundation for our discussion. We will be celebrating the season’s end with a meal prepared with local foods, and engage in conversation to stimulate ideas for potential projects to move these ideas forward.
Date and Time: Friday, November 9th at 5:00 PM
Location: Southwest Technical College, 1800 Bronson Boulevard, Fennimore, WI
Meal: A locally-sourced meal provided by Southwest Technical College
Cost: $10 per person to cover the cost of the meal
You are welcome to join us. You may register on-line or use the registration form to mail in your reservation.
