Food fair coming to Fond du Lac

The second annual Local Food Fair will take place 1 p.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, March 7 at Fond du Lac Tribal and Community College. This free, family-friendly event brings together local farmers, bakers, and other food producers to sell their products and provide information about the upcoming growing season. Farms that offer community supported agriculture boxes will also be on hand to provide ordering information. Vendors will be offering bread and other baked goods, sauerkraut, kimchi, jam, pickles, meat, eggs, and more. The Magnolia Café will be selling soup, sandwiches, salad, and desserts made from local ingredients. The fair is sponsored and organized by the United Way of Carlton County, University of Minnesota Extension, and FDLTCC.
