Local food safety

Safe food protects people and the environment.

Realize chemicals used in growing food kills our soil, harms those who eat it, and pollutes our air and soil. Genetically Modified (GM) food is not healthy for people or domesticated animals. GM corn has less protein and more starch. People and animals become fatter by eating GM food. Encourage safe food, local food, safe farming practices, and support our small organic farmers who produce healthier food with least harm to the earth. Large facotry farms are destructive. Eliminate subsidies!!

Food Security is National Security

Support farming diversity and family owned farms instead of ADM and Cargill,Monsanto and others. Food Security is National Security. Too much of America's food supply comes from outside America. Support grants and micro loans for famers markets,small scale farmers,urban and suburban farms and other diverse means of localizing our food. Please,enough is enough. There is NO excuse for green beans in China costing less than those grown 10 miles away.
