94th WFU Annual State Convention

December 13, 2024 12:00 PM - December 15, 2024 2:00 PM (CST)

Description

Ninety-four years ago, our founders knew family farms were worth fighting for. They gathered in solidarity to set policy that would improve life on their family farms and in their communities. We'll continue that legacy as we celebrate Wisconsin Farmers Union's 94th convention.

Groundswell

Join us for an insightful workshop focusing on the multifaceted issue of ethanol. This event aims to foster an open and respectful dialogue among members, recognizing the diverse perspectives within our community. We will feature expert presentations that provide insight into ethanol as a renewable fuel source as well as its environmental impacts. Through facilitated discussions, attendees will have the opportunity to voice their experiences, listen to others, and engage in constructive conversations. Our goal is to create a space where all members feel heard, respected, and more informed about this critical topic.

There will also be a webinar that will cover this topic that will take place in November. All participants of Groundswell will be asked to attend this webinar or watch the recording before Friday, December 13th. 

Registration will open at 9:30 am with brunch starting at 10 am. Programming will take place from 11am - 5pm. 

Friday Night Fundraising Dinner 

Please join us for an exciting evening which includes a live auction, light dinner, and connecting with old and new friends as we raise money for WFU Kamp Kenwood outdoor recreation spaces.  Doors open at 6:00 pm.

Youth Programming

This year there will be both a childcare option and youth programming at the Convention.

Childcare will be available for youth ages 7 and under. When you select that registration option it includes both Saturday and Sunday as well as all meals during those days.  Early bird registration is $60 until November 17th, then - $80. There will be age-appropriate programming including games, crafts, and activities. Snacks will be provided. Meals will not be served in the childcare room. You will need to pick up your children to join you for convention meals in the main hall.

For youth ages 7 and up there will be separate registrations for Saturday and Sunday.

  • Saturday. We will be bringing back our Youth Convention for a Saturday only. Programing will allow youth to experience a convention of their own! Join us for workshops on cooperatives and more, fun games and activities, and presentations on participating in WFU as a member now and in the future. Snacks will be provided. Youth will need to be picked up to join you for convention meals in the main hall.
  • Sunday. For youth 7 and up staying through December 15th, Sunday registration will include lunch and a space for supervised independent activities.

Children aged 7 can attend either childcare or the youth convention.

For additional questions about childcare and youth programming you can contact Grace Clardy at gclardy@wisconsinfarmersunion.com
