The Minnesota Dept. of Tourism has taken large quantities of our
"Minnesota Food Map" to display at tourist information sites around the
state.
This piece is a placemat that also functions as a more traditional
promotional piece. We're distributing it to eateries in and near
communities that will be hosting Key Ingredients, to be used as an
actual placemat, and also at tourist sites and arts and cultural venues,
where it functions as a promotional flier. It features a state map with
its main crops pictured (along with the 12 Key Ingredients tour sites,
and the tour calendar) as well as food-related activities (like an
ethnic food "word search" puzzle, a MN food quiz, "before and after"
pairings of ingredients and food products, and a plug for the Minnesota
Grown Directory, a guide to farm markets, pick-your-own berry farms,
orchards, and nurseries across the state.

Jean,
We have recently recruited a state tourism officer to our board and are
planning to work with him on the New Harmonies tour. However, everything
is very preliminary at this point. If you'll check back with me in
October I should be able to give you some particulars.

Greetings,
I am interested in how councils have worked with their state tourism
offices
-- specifically how state tourism offices have helped promote MOMs
tours.
Have they offered in-kind services (if so, what?), money for specific
projects(what types of projects?), or unrestricted money to underwrite
costs, etc?
Thanks,
Jean Wortman
