Bike the Barns is FairShare CSA Coalition's biggest fundraiser. This fundraising bike ride supports the organization and its Partner Shares program, which helps low-income families access food grown right in their community by a CSA farmer!

Spread across four locations in and around Evansville, WI, volunteers will engage in rider registration, food and beverage service, traffic direction, merchandise sales, parking support, route flagging, clean-up, and more. Bike the Barns is a fun-filled day outside in the beautiful Wisconsin countryside. There are also opportunities for volunteer shifts in the days and weeks leading up to the ride including rider bag stuffing and route marking.

Volunteers will need to sign up for volunteering here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0B4AAAA92CABF5C52-49532848-2024

Mission Statement

We are a 501(c)3 non-profit organization in Madison, Wisconsin. Our mission is to build resilient food communities by investing in farmers and empowering eaters. We envision thriving farms, vibrant communities, and fresh food for all!

Description

Our Core Program Areas:

  • Support in finding local, organic CSA farms near you.
  • Educational workshops and resources for farmers on topics ranging from crop-specific growing techniques to social media marketing.
  • Financial assistance for low-income households in purchasing CSA shares through the Partner Shares Program.
Why CSAs matter:

Small, sustainable farms that grow organic food right in our neighborhoods are the backbone of a local food economy. Through the CSA model, farmers can sell their produce locally for a fair price, and families can access the freshest vegetables while enjoying a relationship with their farmer. It’s a win-win!
