Mil Town Markets

Had the chance to accompany Tim Huth of Lotfotl Community Farm fame** to his weekend farmer's market in Milwaukee. Just wanted to post some pics of his pretty produce and throw up some links.

Milwaukee has a happening local food, community garden, urban ag, and food justice scene. Home to Growing Power and Fondy Food Center, this year it was the site of the Growing Food and Justice for All Intiative's first gathering. And that's just off the top of my head.

If you're looking to join up with a CSA, the Urban Ecology Center holds a CSA open house in March where you can get details and meet growers.

**not exaggerating. Check these articles in Midwest Airlines magazine and on Midwest Renaissance.
