Mulberry Lane Farm brochure wins award

A colorful brochure for Mulberry Lane Farm, Sherwood, Wis., took top honors at the recent North American Farmers’ Direct Marketing Convention. The convention is an annual event held by the North American Farmers’ Direct Marketing Association (NAFDMA). NAFDMA members from throughout North America submitted their brochures to the annual Members’ Choice Contests.

The contest is held every year in conjunction with NAFDMA’s annual convention. This year it was held in Wisconsin Dells, Wis., in February 2008. Conference attendees voted for their favorites.

Mulberry Lane Farm is owned by the Keyes family. The farm hosts school field trips, birthday parties, corporate outings and other group events. In addition to the animals, visitors can take a pony ride or a tractor-drawn hay ride.

Mulberry Lane Farm opens for the season on May 7. Visit www.mulberrylanefarmwi.com for more information.
