Northland College has established a goal of using 20% local foods on campus for the 2012-2013 school year, with the ultimate goal of 80% local food over time. Northland, in partnership with its food service provider Chartwells, has been working with the UW-Extension, Chequamegon Food Co-op, Bayfield Regional Food Producers Cooperative (BRFPC) and other local farms to meet the demand of hungry students with locally produced food. At Northland, a new station in the Baldwin Dining Commons, hosts a local protein, starch, and vegetable each day.
