Support Local Farmers Markets

A number of local farmers markets in Brown County begin another season either this week or shortly after. By attending a farmers market, you are supporting farmers in Northeast Wisconsin as well as the local economy. Farmers markets also provide an opportunity to purchase good quality fresh produce. There are a number of farmers markets in Brown County. I hope you are able to take advantage of purchasing produce at one or more of these farmers markets.
