Annual Spring Dinner
Wednesday April 1, 2009
Bohn’s Restaurant
5:45 pm Registration
6:30 pm Dinner
Our speaker for the evening Tom Rivers, a journalist from the Batavia Daily News, got his hands dirty writing his series on farm jobs. Addressing the farm labor issue head on, Tom spent the summer of 2008 working on area farms and communicating his experience through this series. The articles not only describe the daily tasks and farm workers’ perspectives, they have helped place a greater value on the need for a skilled and adequate work force for our farms in order to harvest a safe and local food supply. Reserve tickets by calling Hans Kunze @ 495-6797 by 3/29/09.
