Food Distribution System
This website is under development. It is used by co-op staff to manage the co-op's food distribution system.
The Producers & Buyers Co-op links local, sustainable farms with institutional buyers in a twelve-county area of West Central Wisconsin (Eau Claire, Chippewa, Barron, Dunn, Pepin, Trempealeau, Buffalo, Clark, Jackson, Polk, Pierce, and St. Croix counties). Members include producers, institutional buyers, food processors, and those from the private transportation system.
We would be happy to hear from you if you are interested in learning more about the co-op, becoming a member, or supporting the co-op through donations, contributions, or investing.
