GMOs vs. Grow Your Own

North America is a huge laboratory and we are the rats. The big experiment is GMO – or Genetically Modified Organisms. It is estimated that over 70% of the foods in an average grocery store contain GMOs.

We still need food to live. Where is it coming from? And do we know what’s in it? On one hand it’s time to insist on proper food labeling. But perhaps most importantly, it’s time to take responsibility for growing it ourselves.
