Save The Date: ‘Justice Begins with Seeds’ International Conference – 2013 Aug. 2nd & 3rd Seattle, Washington

from biosafetyalliance.org: Join food justice and NON-GMO food advocates for two days of plenaries, discussion groups and networking opportunities around SEEDS, SOIL, SOVEREIGNTY and ACCOUNTABILITY. Get the tools you need to support the movement and advocate for NON GMO food!
