Whether you live in rural parts of the state or near a larger city, chances are there’s a farmer’s market somewhere near you. We talk to a researcher about growth in Wisconsin’s farmer’s markets and challenges they face. We also hear from a guest who says the problem with Wisconsin’s labor force is not that people aren’t participating and we discuss this week’s national news.
