FIELD TRIPS ala Trad-Food-MN members

[Guest guest]

This is another brain-storm I had today as I contemplate the end

of 2004 (not my best year ever!) and the beginning of 2005 (I'm

contemplating and planning on a GREAT year!! I can FEEL it).

Possible places to get GROUP TOURS

1) Farms and Ranches

2) Slaughterhouse (for those who are interested)

3) Helios Kefir and some creameries

4) Whole Foods (insider tour)

5) Coops (back room)

6) Organic Chocolatier

7) The IN (Horst's new awesome place)

8) Restaurants

9) Coffeehouses

10 )Mrs. 's Teas

We could also make a group presence at other food tastings,

food events, ag events (like we did at Acres) and others.

Anyone else have some tour ideas?

Don't forget about the Sustainable Farm Assoc meeting next weekend in

Lake. It's for consumers as well as producers.
