The Churches’ Center for Land and People (CCLP) is sponsoring winter farmer’s markets in church halls featuring brunches using local food.continue at MadCathHerald
The “Markets and Meals for Hope” program, coordinated by the CCLP, has scheduled seven farmer’s markets and brunches in the Madison area from January 11 through February 22.
The brunches include local food prepared by people in the churches under the direction of professional chefs.
These markets provide small-scale farmers the chance to sell their products in the off-season. The farmers supply the ingredients for the brunches and are able to sell products directly to those attending the meals.
Products for sale at the markets include woolen goods, farmstead soaps, cheese, produce, preserves, honey, and meats.
Farmers help each other by donating 10 percent of the sales to the Harvest of Hope emergency fund with 100 percent of donations given to farmers in need.

Badger, your blog and attending posts on the Sungenis 'Principle' film were worthless. Your posts read like cookie cutter Catholic fare with no real insight. Hope you have a sound day profession. Toodles, Christian soldier.
