Chamber Chat: Seeking producers of locally made food and beverages

By: 
Barbara Anne Greene

There are two things we can do about horrible people. Not be one and hold them accountable.
A message from the Wyoming Business Council: “We know not everyone can gather around a literal table in Wyoming for the best we have to offer, but Wyoming products can be on everyone’s table. Wyoming Table is a platform to connect interested buyers (local, regional, national, and international) with our in-state ranchers, farmers, distilleries, brewers, and other producers so that they can purchase high-quality, locally-made food and beverages.” To register your product and to access the directory of businesses selling in Wyoming go to joinWYTable.com.” If you need assistance, contact our local WBC representative Kristin Fong. kristin.fong@wyo.gov
