Crowd funding WPT’s Around the Farm Table
and Joe Maurer (Producer).
The farmers we feature on Around The Farm Table all have one thing in common – they strive to create healthier, nutrient-dense food while feeding the soils and conserving the land for the next generations. – Host Inga Witscher on her showIn case you hadn’t heard about it before, Around the Farm Table is a Wisconsin Public Television program hosted by Osseo dairy farmer Inga Witcher featuring midwestern farmers and food producers – and it’s looking for some help. The show’s second season is currently in production, and in order to reach a wider audience than ever before, its producers are looking to crowd fund enough money to complete the last five installments of the 13-episode run.
The show has an Indiegogo campaign underway to achieve their goals. Funders have the ability to choose how much they are willing to donate, and in return a number of perks are available, including signed recipe cards, Around the Farm Table’s soundtrack, custom aprons, aged cheddar cheese straight from Witcher’s farm, an organic dinner on the farm, and many other cool opportunities.
The money raised will go towards hiring crew members, purchasing food for recipes, travel costs, and any equipment needed to produce even more high-quality content for your viewing pleasure. The campaign ends in less than a week – on July 23 – so go check it out. We’d love to see a locally produced TV show focusing on Wisconsin food thrive.
