In the Market for ONE Members!
This Saturday ONE Wisconsin hit the Dane County Farmers’ Market on Madison’s downtown Capitol Square! The Madison Farmers Market is actually the largest producer-only farmers’ market in the country.
Volunteers, like Meri DeGarmo, had the chance to talk to folks about the important issues of poverty, hunger, and disease facing millions of people around the world. We also signed up a bunch of new ONE supporters.
What a great reception! ONE will be back on the square each Saturday morning to raise awareness.
We need volunteers to help at the Dane County Farmers Market throughout the summer. To RSVP to help click here.
