First ever Local Fare Spring Marketplace Event Was a SUCCESS

During this first ever event, over 23 producer and business vendors shared information and samples of local foods and had the opportunity to sell products directly to the consumer. Over 250 regional citizens participated in the three hour event. Additional photos will be available for viewing shortly. An additional marketplace event is being planned in Dodgeville for this May (stay tuned for details) and for the fall and I hope will continue to grow in both the number of vendors and participants. If you would like assistance hosting a similar event in your area please contact April Fuhr at localfare@uwplatt.edu.
