We expect excellent organizational and leadership skills, an entrepreneurial spirit and strong creative problem-solving ability.

Published quarterly with the seasons, Edible Madison focuses on Southern Wisconsin's food and agriculture through the stories of the local farmers, food producers, chefs, food educators and forward-thinking organizations that are behind the region's dynamic local food movement. And we share information about national food and farming issues and topics to keep us all connected to the greater food movement.
