On Thursday, April 3rd the Iowa Organic Association held at spring farmer meet-up sponsored by Wendt Crop Insurance at A&W Farms. Farmers and organic supporters from around central Iowa came together to talk about plans for the upcoming season, challenges they are facing this year, and of course markets! In fact we were such great conversation that nobody remembered to take a picture! Thank you to everyone who came out and we especially want to thank Noah from Wendt Crop Insurance for providing the meal! Look for more "farmer meet-ups" this year. (fb)
