SUMMARY:Still Learning 9: What is "Organic" Anyway and Why Should You Care?
DESCRIPTION:This class will take place at Dillman’s Bay Resort on July 8 and 10\, 2025\, 10:00 a.m.-12:30 p.m.\, with Renee Randall.\nThis is part of a trio of 2025 Fe University courses offered in partnership with Dillman’s Art Workshop Retreat.  \nWe thank Dillman’s for their generosity in working with us. Dillman’s is a beautiful Northwoods resort with a world-class art workshop series\, and we are grateful to be offering these classes with them. \nStill Learning 9: What is “Organic” Anyway and Why Should You Care?\nFor the last 50 years\, instructor Renee Randall has been an organic farmer in rural America. Those years have given her a unique view of the history of the organic movement and of our food system from “farm to table.” She was a Chicago girl studying therapeutic nutrition who ended up leaving that life\, and with her kids\, moving to a farm in the Driftless region of southwestern Wisconsin. At that time\, in 1973\, being a woman farmer and certifying organic were trailblazing moves. But she had been a mother searching out and shopping for “organic” in the city\, and so\, with a chance to farm and that history in nutrition\, it seemed the only way to go. As a student she was learning why organic could be important\, but as a farmer over these last 50 years she has seen that it should be important. The reasons to care about how food is grown are critical for human health and ultimately the health of the planet. In this class\, we’ll look at those reasons and your power as a consumer to understand and support the right kind of farming.\n \nA light lunch is included. \nWe recommend signing up at least two weeks ahead of class to ensure class fills and to prevent cancellation. \nThis class is limited to 25 students. \nInstructor: Renee Randall \nOffline Registration: Download PDF Registration Form\, complete and mail in with payment. \nRegistration Questions? Contact us or call (715) 862-2032 or (715) 476-2881. \nRegistration Issues/Troubleshooting: If you are registering with one email address for two or more people\, please register each person individually (i.e. do not register all at once\, but add students one at a time to checkout). If you continue to have difficulty or have another question\, please contact us. \nCourse Cancellations: Students are encouraged to register at least 2 weeks before the beginning of any Fe University course. A course with less than 4 students 2 weeks before the start date may be cancelled at instructor/FeU discretion\, with students’ registrations refunded. If you’re interested in a class\, please sign up early! Thank you. \nStudent Cancellations: If a registered student cancels\, registration can be refunded if requested 4 or more days before the course’s start date. We’re afraid cancellation requests made 3 or fewer days before the course’s start date are unable to be refunded. \nAll courses in our series Still Learning After All These Years are priced at a discount thanks to  generous donations from Bader Philanthropies Inc. and  the Northern Wisconsin Mental Health Foundation.
