IRS990/ProgSrvcAccomActy3Grp/Desc0Local Food System Education:1) We coordinated the Healthy Local Foods Exhibit at the Minnesota State Fair's EcoExperience. This exhibit featured organizations working with food systems issues, local food samples, cooking demos, educational games, photography, and a wide array of information. Estimates were that 265,000 people went through the EcoExperience building. We estimate that over 150 volunteers contributed over 1000 hours of time to the Healthy Local Foods exhibit. 2) We co-hosted a New Farmer Summit Wisconsin for over 150 new and aspiring farmers. We also coordinated activities for new farmers at the 2014 Organic Farming Conference and planned field days trainings for this audience.
