Tommorow February 27th is a national day of action called Occupy the Food Supply. The organizers of Occupy the Food Supply are a powerful alliance of sustainable agriculture advocates and food justice networks, including over 60 Occupy Wall Street groups as well as environmental and corporate accountability organizations who are joining together with a theme of creating local solutions and resisting Big Ag and its destructive practices of placing profits over people and the planet. Organizations and individuals are hosting events across the country that either focus on protest of the corporate food system or that highlight work thats already being done to forge a new model of equitable food production and distribution. Here is an interesting article by the executive director of Food First that discusses the intersection of the Occupy and Food Justice movements. Little City gardens is participating by putting our Monday workday on the map of events. Come out and visit us from 1-5.
