UW-Extension Food and Value Added Agriculture
"The Food and Value Added Agriculture program was originally developed by the Agricultural Innovation Center through the University of Wisconsin-Madison Extension. The work of the Center is now part of the Center for Community & Economic Development. It works towards increasing the supply and visibility of Wisconsin farms and food products by providing resources for entrepreneurs and educators as well as information about active programs. These programs focus on increasing the market for wholesale and retail local foods in grocery stores and institutions as well as farmer’s markets, restaurants and community kitchens."
