Book Description
There are as many compelling reasons for attending farm markets as there are ears in a cornfield. People are realizing just how hungry they are -- hungry for fresh, satisfying food. Thirsty for a sense of community. Craving a healthier environment and a fair shake for small farmers. Born of necessity, fed by demand, farmers' markets and roadside stands are going strong -- growing, you might say, like zucchini in August. No place is this more true than in Wisconsin. This book is a celebration of Wisconsin fresh market foods and the people who produce and sell them. It's a fond look at seasonal markets -- what they offer us, who is offering it, and how you can best take advantage of it all. From field to kitchen, Fresh Market Wisconsin will help you to buy fresh, cook fresh and eat fresh. Book jacket.

Book Description
This comprehensive overview of local food systems explores alternative definitions of local food, estimates market size and reach, describes the characteristics of local consumers and producers, and examines early indications of the economic and health impacts of local food systems. Defining ¿local¿ based on marketing arrangements, such as farmers selling directly to consumers at regional farmers¿ markets or to schools, is well recognized. Statistics suggest that local food markets account for a small, but growing, share of U.S. agricultural production. For smaller farms, direct marketing to consumers accounts for a higher percentage of their sales than for larger farms. Charts and tables.

Book Description
With its fertile soil and more than a century of agricultural heritage, Wisconsin ranks #2 in the nation for its number of organic farms, second only to California. From the boho-chic Driftless Region to cherry orchards hugging Lake Michigan in Door County—not to mention pizza farms nestled along the Mississippi River—the Dairy State is the ideal vacation for farm-loving travelers in search of authentic culinary experiences. Whether it’s stepping into a cranberry bog or sipping cider fermented from antique apples, this book’s profiles of farms (and its farmers) has that itinerary covered. The agritourism opportunities abound throughout the state: farm stays, pick your owns, farming museums, county fairs, dairy centers, wine tastings, tree farms, farmer’s markets, and so much more.
