Tell the FDA To Keep Their Hands Off Local Food

The FDA’s proposed Food Safety Modernization Act poses real threats to sustainable agriculture.  If we want local, organic food and farming to thrive, we need to mobilize our families, friends, and neighbors and our farmers, foodmakers, and customers, to comment on these rules and tell FDA to keep its hands off local food.  The FDA must hear from us if we are going to fix these flawed and illogical rules.  We won some critical victories three years ago, and together we can do it again.”
