Fair Farm Bill Campaign Kickoff Meeting
Event Details
Date:
February 1, 2012
Location:
Albany Quaker Meeting House 727 Madison Ave Time:
7:00pm- 8:00pm Care about small farmers? How about healthy, sustainable food and food justice? Then please join us for the Fair Farm Bill Campaign Kickoff Meeting!
Right now, our country’s food system is broken. A few large companies, like Cargill and Monsanto, control every part of our food system, risking public health, driving out small and mid-sized farmers, and hurting the environment.
The good news is that we can make our food system work better for small farmers and our communities, and give consumers access to safer, more sustainable food.
This winter, Senator Gillibrand has the opportunity to level the playing field for small farmers through the Farm Bill. Senator Gillibrand is on the Agricultural Committee and we need to show her that New Yorkers want her to stand up for small farmers and consumers.
