Since 2011, FFD has proudly hosted this prize in honor of John Kinsman, founder
and longtime president of FFD, who passed away at age 87 on MLKJ Day in 2014.
John was not only a pioneer of organic grass-based dairy farming in the Midwest,
but was a strong voice for food sovereignty, civil rights, and social justice, both in the
U.S. and around the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Local food banquet is provided by Lisa Buttonow of the Branding Iron Roadhouse in Lime Ridge, WI!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Suggested banquet donation: $35 per person (kids under 12 are free!)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anyone making a $100+ tax deductible donation to sponsor the JK prize will receive two complimentary banquet tickets, a mention in the program, and two FFD t-shirts of their choice! For more info, contact: familyfarmdefenders@yahoo.com or call 608-260-0900<\/p>\n\n\n\n
