7 ounces of milk
3 large eggs
1/4 cup flour
½ teaspoon of baking powder
Salt and pepper


Directions

2. Add the salt and pepper to the eggs and beat with an electric mixer but not at so high a speed that it becomes overly frothy.
3. Add the flour and then the milk to the eggs.
4. Incorporate the pumpkin puree and continue to mix to obtain a smooth and homogeneous texture.
5. Pour into molds.
6. Bake at 350 degrees F until they are golden brown.

Throughout October and into November, a team of students from the Wisconsin School of Business at the University of Wisconsin - Madison has been working diligently to study the Dane County Farmers' Market in order to help deliver a better experience for our patrons and vendors. The team of four brings diverse perspective to the project.

 

An important component of the project is a brief survey for those who attend the market. The goal is to capture a cross-section of who attends the market, why they do, and what they do (buy a lot, nothing, or a little).

 

A survey link is planned for inclusion in next week's DCFM eNewletter. Your participation in this brief survey will help us make the DCFM a better market. This short survey can be take electronically, directly from the newsletter. It's basically point and click. No personal information is collected.

 

Members of the student team will also be conducting surveys at the market this Saturday and at the final outdoor market, November 10. Your participation in the survey being conducted at the market is greatly appreciated. It is short yet will provide much information we can use to improve the Dane County Farmers' Market.

 

The members of the student team are quite enthusiastic about the DCFM and making it a better market. They include:

 

 

Brittany Denuszek is pursuing an Integrated Master's degree in Accountancy. Brittany spent spring semester as an intern for PriceWaterhouseCoopers, where she will return upon graduation.

 

Melissa Martinez is currently pursuing a Master's degree in Business Administration, with a concentration in Brand & Product Management. Prior to business school, Melissa enjoyed a successful career as a product developer. Melissa intends to be an Associate Brand Manager within the consumer goods industry upon graduation.

If you see our team of students around the market, be sure to stop them and say hello! Better yet, please help them out with the survey by spending a couple of minutes answering their questions. Look for the electronic link to the survey in next week's DCFM eNewsletter. 

 

 

 

Until next week.
