Fellow freedom gardners I need a some bits of information that may be at your fingertips.
My friend is a state legislator who is a constitutional conservative. He called me Thurs. evening. He is interested in drafting legislation relating to food freedom, i.e., farmers’ markets, on-premise sales, roadside stands, etc., in that any foods grown and sold within the state shall be free from oppressive regulations. He’s willing to include raw milk, too.
I steered him towards the movie trailer “Farmaggedon” but there might be sample state legislation out there to use as a point-of-beginning.
I would appreciate you forwarding some links, info and the like on this topic. I have been working a part-time, non-farming job this winter and I’m booked this weekend, thus my humble request for help.
We will likely call it the “Food Freedom Act.”
What’s interesting is I’m a FReeping right winger whose has made food freedom a common cause with the “lovely” liberals. Who’d a thought ... freedom unites! :)
Thanks again in advance for your help.
