Organic Valley Jobs

What happens when you put a group of young Organic Valley farmers (and a few employees) together on a bus and send them through Montana and down the West Coast on a three-week tour? Lifelong friendships are formed, the young farmers become adept messengers for our coop, and eaters from Bozeman to Stanford get to engage with the people who will be producing our country's food in the decades to come.Wright explains in the article that Organic Valley is a farmer-owned cooperative of 1,652 organic family farms and is strongly interested in the health and sustainability of small-scale family farms and rural communities.

The bill also includes provisions which encourage small-scale renewable energy generation that would support Wisconsin families considering new energy projects such as manure digesters, small wind turbines and solar projects.
