We shared a booth with Crawford Stewardship Project, and chatted with them about their crusade to keep a pig CAFO from damaging Crawford County, as we strive to prevent a dairy CAFO in Vernon County. Fairgoers supported us by purchasing yard signs and KARST posters, as well as valuable encouragement in our struggle to preserve our environment through <strong>"Family Farms, Not Factory Farms" </strong><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2788825650618039047-1403581528725186928?l=vernoncountyaces.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Vernon ACEShttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17689788536799792483noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2788825650618039047.post-29989382474599047492009-07-08T14:49:00.000-07:002009-07-08T14:57:45.820-07:00<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KGflv8jbA5k/SlUWIYv55WI/AAAAAAAAAAs/3WhO9id19Qo/s1600-h/Cow+LaFarge+009.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_KGflv8jbA5k/SlUWIYv55WI/AAAAAAAAAAs/3WhO9id19Qo/s320/Cow+LaFarge+009.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5356211665165215074" /></a><br />As we wait for Petry to make his move and let Vernon County know which of his properties will be chosen for the 3200 head dairy, A.C.E.S. is committed to keeping the C.A.F.O. issue alive.
