The USDA is yet another federal agency that needs to be shuttered. I don’t need them in my garden for “food safety” or any other reason. I don’t need them inspecting food that I buy at the grocery store. We don’t need them wasting tax dollars on school lunches. That’s a parent’s responsibility.
They probably want to know where the gardens are so they can send the 'Snap' recipients to your garden to snap up all the good veggies leaving you the tailings.
