FOOD FREEDOM RALLY
Friday, March 2
11:00am - 1:00pm
A Food Freedom Rally will be held in support of Wisconsin dairy farmer, Vernon Hershberger, who faces criminal charges and possible imprisonment for providing raw dairy to his community via a private herd-share agreement. Vernon courageously stands for food freedom and sets a new standard for farmers' responses to these egregious government violations.

At a pre-court rally scheduled for 11:00 am in front of the Sauk County Courthouse, 515 Oak Street, Baraboo, supporters will engage in a signing ceremony for their "Declaration of Food Independence."
