Wedge Co-op at the Minnesota State Fair!

Share

For the second year, the Wedge Co-op, in partnership with Renewing the Countryside and Organic Valley, will host the Healthy Local Foods area in the Eco-Experience Building at the Minnesota State Fair. The Wedge will host more than 20 local farmers, shepherds, growers and ranchers as part of our ongoing commitment to local, sustainable food. Meet Martin and Atina Diffley of Gardens of Eagan, Harry and Jackie Hoch of Hoch Orchards, and Chris and Kim Blanchard of Rock Spring Farm. We will have different local producers every day of the fair, plus some fun cooking demonstrations featuring Natural Food Educator Jennette Turner and Uli Koester, from Midwest Food Connection.

The Eco-Experience Building is located next to the Machinery Hill on the fair grounds and is open every day of the State Fair from 9-9. The State Fair starts Thursday, August 23 and runs through Labor Day, September 3.

See you there!
