Seward Co-op CSA Fair + Welcome Party
April 29, 2023 @ 11:00 am - 2:00 pm
Join us for Seward Co-op’s annual Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Fair + Welcome Party for Ray Williams, Seward Co-op’s new General Manager!
Seward Co-op is dedicated to helping build a food system that values inclusivity, environmental responsibility, equity, and access. Visit our CSA Fair to see these values in action! Join us in the parking lot of the Creamery Café on Saturday, April 29th from 11:00 a.m. – 2:00 p.m. to learn about local farms and speak directly with nearly 30 farmers to choose a CSA share that is right for you and your household. Midwest Food Connection will join us at the fair with activities for kids, and we’ll have treats, prizes, and more.
In addition to the CSA Fair under the tent, we will be celebrating Seward Co-op’s new General Manager, Ray Williams! Please join the board of directors in marking this momentous occasion with refreshments, music, and mingling on the patio!
We also look forward to engaging with community members on the future of the Creamery building. Seward Co-op finalized the official purchase of the building in 2022, and we are excited to bring owners into the conversation about how the space can serve our community. Seward Co-op staff and board members will lead informal “walk and talks” through the building and provide opportunities for questions and feedback on the next phase of growth.
This event is open to all – RSVP is not required, but if you register via the Eventbrite link below, we will send you a reminder email before the event.
