ANNUAL Meeting and dinner

Our Annual Meeting Dinner will take place on Friday, May 30, starting at 5 PM at the BlueFish Restaurant on River St. in Manistee. We are pleased to announce that the topic of this year’s Annual Meeting and Dinner is The Farmer is the One Who Feeds Us All.

Our guest speaker will be Mark Yonkman, a farmer from Boon, Michigan, and former New York finance lawyer. He will talk about the role of farmers in the food supply chain: farm to table. He will address how different policies affect farmers’ profits and losses, and how a changing global economy impacts the fruit and vegetable economy of small farmers.

We will also set aside a portion of the evening to recognize and honor Nancy Behring for her years of service as President of the Manistee County League of Women Voters. Nancy attended her first LWV meeting in 1969 and has been a member of the local chapter since 2006.
