Milwaukee’s Growing Power hosts winter market
Since mid-fall, the fourth annual Growing Power Winter Market has been taking place in Milwaukee.
The second half of the 2016-17 winter market season will begin Jan. 7 at 5500 W. Silver Spring Drive.
Growing Power, an urban farm, has earned national recognition for its mission to provide equal access to healthy, high-quality, safe and affordable food for all people in the communities in which they live.
A Growing Power goal is to bring together vendors from Milwaukee and the surrounding area to form a local market where the Silver Spring community can shop for fruits and veggies, as well as handmade crafts, goods and products.
Founding vendors include Lopez Bakery, Vadose Orchid Jewelry, River of Dreams Meats and Don the Farmer.
New vendors are joining the market every week.
