Food Freedom -- one state at a time
http://www.naturalnews.com/031667_food_freedom_Maine.html

Local residents recently voted unanimously at a town hall meeting to pass an ordinance that reinforces its citizens' God-given rights to "produce, process, sell, purchase, and consume local foods of their choosing," which includes even state- and federally-restricted foods like raw milk.

2. A nice link on that page had this:

But Senator Harry Reid -- the King of Corruption in the Senate, in my opinion -- kept pushing this bill, backed by Big Agribiz corporate supporters who can't wait to see small farms buried under the burden of compliance that would be unleashed under the bill. And no, all small farms are NOT exempt from this bill. In the world of agriculture, a small family farm growing food on as little as twenty acres can easily exceed $1 million a year in revenues (without much profit, because there isn't much profit in most crops) and thereby be subjected to FDA tyranny under S.510.


Nice site you got there. Harry may be a wimp, but I don't think he's the king of corruption.

Natural news: giving you your right to be sickened by the foods you eat back to you.
