Fabulous weekend event with suits and sandals walking around learning and networking about sustainable living. I used to be an intern at MREA and it has a lot of amazing things going on there as well as year round workshops. They are collaborating with MRES here in MN to deliver renewable energy education and training.

Highly recommend attending the fair if you've never been!!

Organic Valley will continue an Energy Fair tradition of serving a $5

breakfast will go to support the educational programs of the MREA.
Join us for some Organic Valley scrambled eggs, Organic Prairie sausages,
and OV beverages, along with cereal and granola bars from Nature's Path. Meet Organic Valley farmers and sign up for a chance to win to win a year of free Organic Valley products. We are excited this year to have 2 workshops on the Energy Fair schedule: Organic Valley Biodiesel Coordinator Zach Bierman and On-Farm Sustainability

Farms," including hands-on demonstration of crushing oilseeds for biodiesel.


Organic Valley dairy producer Rick Adamski will present "Organic Farming
with Renewable Energy" discussing the installation and operation of the 35kw Vestas wind turbine that on most days provides all the electricity needs for his Seymour, WI farm.
