Dean’s Lists DHS asks FoodShare Area UW-River Falls members to be aware of March benefit letters Automatically generated letters will say no benefits are available in March because of federal government shutdown

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) says FoodShare members should be aware that some letters they receive will say they are getting no benefits in March due to the federal government shutdown.

Our top priority is to ensure the needs of Wisconsin residents are met, and to share information with members, partners, and stakeholders as the situation evolves. DHS continues to work with the USDA Food and Nutrition Service to understand the impacts the shutdown may have on March benefits. As FoodShare benefits are 100 percent federally funded, those benefits have not been guaranteed.

However, the letters are automatically generated as part of normal system processing, and represent the current scenario of no federal funding for FoodShare in March.

The letters will include this note, whether the applicant or member is enrolled in FoodShare or not:

Note: If you have applied or are enrolled in FoodShare, your benefits may be impacted by the federal government shutdown. This means you may get a $0 benefit in any month until the shutdown ends.

You cannot ask for a fair hearing for this change.

DHS is working with FNS, as well as other federal and state agencies to explore options for funding benefits in March. We will notify members when we receive additional information about funding availability. DHS will continue to post up-to-date information on our FoodShare webpage.

DHS wants to remind members that February FoodShare benefits will be available on QUEST cards as early as Jan. 20. Members that get these early February benefits will not get additional FoodShare benefits on their QUEST cards in February, so members need to budget and plan accordingly.

Elementary Lunch Bunch in Albany

BY SAVANNA NETTESHEIM

In the elementary special education classroom, we have a fantastic opportunity to work on social skill building by having a ‘lunch bunch’.

This is an opportunity for the students to bring a friend every week to the classroom to eat lunch and play social skill building games. This allows the students to not only build on their social skills, but also build new friendships with fellow peers.

Students really enjoy their time spent down in the classroom on Fridays. This year, the students have en-

joyed playing card games, emotions bingo, board games, as well as, craft projects.

Before winter break, the students wanted to do a fun team building activity as well as a craft project.

Therefore, we came up with the idea to ‘build a snowman’, in which the students teamed up and picked a friend to wrap in toilet paper to make them look like a snowman.

After the students wrapped their friend up in the paper, they needed to add the accessories needed to look like a snowman. The first group

to finish first won that race. The students had lots of laughs and excitement making their friends look like a snowman.

After we played two rounds of this, we were able to make a fun ‘Grinch’ project out of paper, paper towel rolls, and cotton balls. The students looked out and helped one another as we were making our ‘Grinch’.

With an opportunity such as this, the students have fun and strengthen their social skills at once. I am delighted to continue the ‘Lunch Bunch’ within the coming years.

Specialized training to optimize growth, resilience for Wisconsin’s food and beverage businesses

DATCP to start inspecting produce farms this year

Through a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) will begin inspecting produce farms for compliance with federal food safety regulations this year. The inspections are part of the FDA Food Safety and Modernization Act’s Produce Safety Rule to better protect public health by focusing food safety efforts on prevention of foodborne illnesses.

“Implementing the Produce Safety Rule for Wisconsin has required additional resources, training, and education for our staff and the industry,” said Shawn Bartholomew, DATCP Produce Safety Supervisor. “Starting these inspections will be a major milestone as Wisconsin’s fresh fruit and vegetable industry align with nationwide food safety requirements.”

While inspections for large produce farms will begin this year, inspections for smaller produce farms will start in 2020. The FDA defines the size of a produce farm based on the following annual food sales revenue: Large produce farm: More than $500,000 Small produce farm: $250,000$500,000 Very small produce farm: $25,000$250,000 Throughout the implementation, DATCP will continue to provide education and training to help produce growers implement nationally standardized food safety practices.

Education and Training for Produce Growers In partnership with the University of Wisconsin-Extension, produce growers can prepare their farm for inspections by participating in produce safety training. The training is required for fresh produce growers who must meet the federal produce safety rules. More information about training dates and how to register is available at http://safeproduce.wi.gov.

Another resource produce growers can use to prepare for an inspection is to participate in an on-farm readiness review. A review is done by a team of state food safety officials and cooperative extension staff who provide an assessment of the farm’s readiness to meet the new requirements. There is no charge to the grower, no regulatory paperwork, and feedback is provided through observation and discussion. More information about an on-farm readiness review and how to request one is available at http:// safeproduce.wi.gov.

More Information For more information about DATCP’s Safe Wisconsin Produce program visit http://safeproduce.wi.gov, call (608) 224-4511, or email safeproduce@wi.gov.

Wisconsin ranks 11th in the nation in number of produce farms, and second in number of organic produce farms.

A pilot program to advance the state’s small food and beverage businesses is launching this month with support from a $100,000 federal grant.

The Food Finance Institute (FFI) and the Wisconsin Small Business Development Center Network will provide financial management boot camps and customized consulting for food manufacturing companies and entrepreneurs.

Both programs are part of the University of Wisconsin System Administration’s Institute for Business & Entrepreneurship.

The food and beverage industry is a strong component of the Wisconsin economy with more than 1,400 companies, and food processing generates $67.8 billion in sales, according to data from the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation.

Wisconsin’s food industry jobs are changing. Nearly 3,500 food industry jobs were lost to closures from April 2016 to Mar. 2018, including 1,800 in food retail establishments such as convenience stores and supermarkets and 800 at major plants (Kraft Heinz Foods and Tyson).

The Expanding Food Manufacturing in Wisconsin Initiative responds to that challenge in two ways: 1. Creating higher paid manufacturing jobs for displaced retail workers who already have industry-specific skills.

2. Boosting rural economic vitality at existing food companies located in rural areas.

With funding from the U.S. Small Business Administration, two boot camps in 2019 will reach a projected 15 businesses and entrepreneurs. The first boot camp is Jan. 15-16 and Feb. 19-20 in Green County; the second will be April 4-7 in Door County.

Financial management boot camps combine industry-specific training, peer networking and oneon-one consulting to provide the tools necessary to build a more resilient food business.

FFI Director Tera Johnson developed the curriculum and approach over the past two years in working with businesses and organizations all across the country.

“The ever-growing global food and beverage industry is being driven by trends for products that are healthy, source verified, safe, sustainable and locally branded -an edge for Wisconsin’s ag-driven economy and businesses,” Johnson said.

Sessions include instruction on how to: • Optimize a business model

based on food industry standards.

• Fix financial infrastructure with proper financial statements to help clients and their stakeholders fully understand the business.

• Develop a financial plan, including realistic and research-based forecasts of sales, marketing and funding sources.

• Prepare to raise money by creating an investment pitch and properly documenting the business. Ideal candidates for this program are: • Young or small food or value-added farm businesses that want to grow, yet are too small for traditional investment banking and need financial technical assistance to raise equity.

• Local food and value-added farm businesses that need to expand to reach a critical mass of sales to be economically sustainable or that need to expand beyond farmer’s markets to make a positive contribution to the family enterprise.

• Local food businesses that want to become national brands or whose business models need to evolve for economic sustainability.

• Food companies looking to set up their own manufacturing facilities.

“This kind of boost is perfect for upholding the strong food and beverage traditions in Green County to help drive our economy and communities,” said Cara Carper, executive director for Green County Development Corporation.

To the basket

By Trenten Scheidegger SPORTS CORRESPONDENT

The Vikings hosted Williams Bay last Tuesday for an inner conference matchup. Parkview, who currently sits in second place in the Trailways South Conference, looked to create some space between them and the third place runner with a victory.

The Vikings came into Tuesday’s matchup holding a 3-1-conference record, while William’s Bay was close behind at 2-2.

The Vikings got off to a hot start thanks in large to strong offensive

performances from Aydon Campbell, Eli Hoscheit, and Justin Balch.

Campbell finished the first half with 11 points, Balch hit a trio of 3-pointers to give him 9 points, and Hoscheit had 8. The trio gave the Vikings a spark to get out to a 35-30 lead as they went into halftime.

Hoscheit continued to have the hot hand in the second half as he totaled 13 points following the break. Jarrett Brown added a pair of 3-pointers and Caylor Burns provided five of his own points in the half.

The Vikings offense was strong but it was their defense that made the difference as they held the Bulldogs to just 24 second half points, which allowed Parkview to take a 72-54 victory.

Hoscheit finished the evening with 21 and Campbell was right behind with 18 of his own.

The victory gave the Vikings a 7-4 overall record and bumped their conference record up to 4-1. They sit just a game behind Palmyra-Eagle who holds a 5-0-conference record.

Workshop on growing cut flowers for market Are you interested in turning your passion for growing flowers into a small business? The Wisconsin Cut Flower Growers School is a two-day workshop designed to help new and beginning growers learn the ins and outs of producing and marketing cut flowers.

The workshop will be held on the University of Wisconsin–Madison campus on February 16 and 17.

Registration costs $275 and includes lunches and refreshments.

The school will be taught by experienced growers: Joe Schmitt, a third-generation flower grower; Jeanie McKewan of Brightflower Nursery; and Hans and Lisa Larsen of Sunborn Gardens. They will provide practical information on how to grow and sell flowers using organic

Letter to the Editor To all Brodhead voters Another election is coming up….. no news to most. All elections are important but the coming Spring Election is especially noteworthy to Brodhead in that there will be six names on the ballot for three open city council positions. Also, at this point, it appears there will be a referendum question on the ballot regarding the proposed new Senior/Community Center. Yes, this election the voter will have choices to make, and that’s a good thing,; along with that comes heavy responsibilities for all.

• The first responsibility….VOTE! Do it in person at City Hall on Tuesday, April 2nd or do it “ABSENTEE”……JUST DO IT! Who can request an absentee ballot? Any qualified elector (U.S. citizen, 18 years of age, who has resided in the district in which he or she intends to vote for at least 10 days) who registers to vote is eligible to request an absentee ballot. Request an

Absentee Ballot by Mail, request an Absentee Ballot by E-Mail, Online, or

by Fax, OR simply call the City Clerk, Teresa Withee, at 608-897-4018 Ext. 150 and ask for an Absentee Ballot to be sent to you….real easy.

• The second responsibility….educate yourself on the issues, and educate yourself on the stances of each candidate regarding those issues.

This is a little more difficult. The news media does a respectable job of presenting the candidates impartially, but interactivity is nonexistent. If one wants answers to particular questions from each candidate forum type presentations seem to fit the bill when personal engagement is not realistic.

No forums are scheduled at present but hopefully a local Civic Group can fill the need. Forums have been received well in past elections and would serve well in this contest too.

ADELINE MARDELLE MATZKE Adeline Mardelle Matzke, 95, of Monroe, formerly of Juda, died peacefully Wednesday January 16, 2019 at Aster Assisted Living in Monroe.

Mardelle was born December 16, 1923 at Deaconess Hospital in Monroe, the daughter of Henry S. and Erma V. (Matzke) Norder.

She attended West School near the family farm on Greenbush Rd. through eighth grade.

Mardelle graduated from Juda High School as class valedictorian.

She attended and graduated from Whitewater State Teachers College.

She was very proud of the fact that she achieved perfect attendance from first grade through college.

Mardelle was very musical and spent her teen years playing the accordion at Bluff View in Brodhead and calling square dances at Turner Hall in Monroe.

After receiving her teacher’s certificate, Mardelle taught at Brodhead Grade School, Juda Grade School and was principal at Juda Grade School for six years.

She was also responsible for the music programs at those schools.

Mardelle loved the arts, both music and painting. She was the choir director for many years at the Juda Zion United Methodist Church. She also painted large scenic murals on the walls of her homes in Juda. She was an avid collector of Avon bottles, cut glass and depression glass. Mardelle also talked often of starting and ending her day with family devotions with her parents.

One of her favorite Bible verses was from Isaiah 41:10 “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, I will help you, I will uphold you with My victorious right hand.” She was also known for her homemade personalized birthday and anniversary cards sent to all members of her family.

On June 26, 1946 she married Irvin H. Matzke at Juda Zion Evangelical Church. At the wedding ceremony she had seating saved for her students from the Juda School.

Upon retiring from teaching, Mardelle worked as bookkeeper at Carter and Gruenewald Implement in Juda. In January of 1986, Irving and Mardelle retired and moved to Kihei, Maui, Hawaii for 12 years, 3 months and 2 days, (not that they were counting!) before returning to live in Monroe.

Mardelle is survived by sister-inlaw Hazel Matzke; a nephew Brian (Peggy) Matzke; a great-nephew Chip (Jessica) Matzke and their daughter, Reagan, all of Juda; a great-niece Calli (Jeff) Ingebritsen and their children Marilyn and Kenneth of Mount Horeb; and several other nieces, nephews, great-nephews, great-nieces and cousins. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband; sistersin-law, Ruth (Carl) Schmidt, Irene (Orville) Zabel, brother-in-law Paul Matzke, nephews William Zabel, Warren Schmidt and niece Carleen Novak.

Funeral services were held on Tuesday, January 22, 2019, at 11 a.m. at the Newcomer Funeral Home, Monroe, with Rev. David Busker officiating.

Interment followed in Mt. Vernon Cemetery, Juda. Visitation was at the funeral home on Tuesday from 10 a.m. until the time of service. Memorials may be given in Mardelle’s name to Juda Zion Church or Juda Fire Dept.

Condolences may be shared at www.newcomerfuneralhome.net Mardelle’s family would like to thank the staffs at Aster Assisted Living and Monroe Clinic Hospice for their kind and compassionate care.
