2008 Feature Tour-
Central Wisconsin AgVenture: Spud,
Berry and Dairy Tour
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, September
29-October 1, 2008
You will travel through Central Wisconsin at the peak of
fall foliage for two and a half fun filled days. You will
visit environmentally friendly farms, picturesque cranberry
marshes and state of the art food-processing plants. As more
and more people are involved with the food we eat our
knowledge and appreciation for where our food comes from
diminishes. This tour will show you first hand what it takes
to put that can of cranberries or bag of potatoes in your
favorite grocery store. Pricing starting as low as $199 per
person.
