“During this time, MFU’s local foods outreach program, @MinnesotaCooks, is collecting names & contact information of Minnesota family farms who are selling directly & safely to consumers & promoting this list online at http://www.minnesotacooks.org .” - @MNFarmersUnion
“With the closure of schools and restaurants to protect public health, farmers who relied on those institutions as their markets have had to get creative to stay afloat and not have to let their products rot.” - @MNFarmersUnion https://bit.ly/2VLijMm
“Not only have we created the direct-market list on Minnesota Cooks to help with this issue, but we’re hard at work advocating at the state and federal levels for policies that bolster family agriculture.” - @MNFarmersUnion
“This #EarthDay , remember that family farmers are our world’s land stewards and work hard to keep their land healthy, to grow food now and for future generations. Thanks for joining our Twitter takeover - remember to support your Minnesota farmers!” - @MNFarmersUnion
