Dear DCFM Enthusiast,

As the Dane County Farmers' Market observes its one week off during the season this Saturday, December 27, this week's eNewsletter is quite short. Just a few notes:

  • The market resumes on Saturday, January 3 at the Madison Senior Center, 330 W. Mifflin, just west of the Madison Central Library. There is plenty of street parking in the area with a municipal ramp adjoining the Senior Center. The market begins at 8:00 am and runs until Noon. The Market Breakfast begins at 8:30 am and runs until around 11:00, ending earlier if the food runs out.
  • DCFM Volunteer Coordinator Ruth Miller is looking for additional kitchen volunteers for the Market Breakfast. It's a lot of fun and the committment is very reasonable. If you're interested in receiving more information contact Ruth at [email protected].
Next week the eNewsletter will be back to its regular length and content.

Let me take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you for your enthusiasm for the DCFM and support of our local farmers and other vendors. Have a safe and happy New Year's celebration!

Take care and I'll see you at Market next year!
