Earlier this month, Wisconsin legislators introduced a bill to the Assembly to overhaul the state’s liquor laws. Unfortunately, this proposal contains language that would severely limit the ability for family farms to rent space for celebrations, such as weddings.  Here’s a link to the AB 304 language that’s posing the deep concern.

In this Deep Roots Radio chat with Sara Hasse, owner and operator of Croix View Event Barn in Osceola, Wisconsin, she describes how this proposed legislation could knock the beams right from under family farms working to remain viable businesses in rural communities. She also looks at possible negative impact on other local businesses that benefit from these event venues.

I hope you enjoy this conversation.
