HEY, come to the STATE FAIR tomorrow, Tuesday, it's Organic Food's big day!

[Guest guest]

Rebekah and I will be there volunteering all day along with the

full crew from the FOOD ALLIANCE MIDWEST (see the

MINNESOTA COOKS program) This is the second year and we

had a total blast last year.

All day long we have a big stage with 2 celebrity chefs cooking

every hour along with celebrity guests tasting the goodies (the

audience gets some too). It's a large open stage just to the

south and west of the main ramp gate of the Coliseum. All the

food items feature local, organic, sustainable, small farm foods.

We are also going to be sampling the Thousand Hills 100%

Grass-Fed beef from 1-4 pm tomorrow as well.

Also visit the Organic Consumers Union (Finland, MN) people at

their booth in the Coliseum (see post below) throughout the

entire fair.

Also check out the livestock building, the Normandie cattle being

imported to the US by Jerome Chateau (a good friend of Trad

foods, NT and Sustainable Ag) are being judged tomorrow. They

won the TOP livestock awards for cattle last year. His cows are

even more impressive this year!

Finally, Check out the St. Fair Food Review by RICK NELSON

(our Trib INSIDER for sustainable ag) in today's Trib. He gave

the TOP 4 STAR RATING to the new frozen mocha at, where? the

Farmer's Union building that all us Sustainable Ag folk are trying

to resurect from the dust. This is our first project. Conventional

ag people have made this prime location, grandfathered-in spot

one of the worst black holes on the Midway. WE WANT TO CLAIM

IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry about the late notice, it slipped up on me. So, come early,

stay late, see it all!

Will, headed to the State Fair
