This Thanksgiving why not send your thanks to farmers worldwide

Farm Radio International has an inspirational campaign this thanksgiving. There are a raft of thanks and a news story about a Liberian radio station in the middle of the fight against the Ebola outbreak. So before or after stuffing you face with Turkey it might be a great idea to remember all the farmers right here in Ontario who are battling the weather trying to get the bean crop off and the Winter Wheat planted. You can find the full story at http://www.farmradio.org/ourblog/2014/10/10/wonderful-messages-of-thanks-this-thanksgiving/

GMO's the next zombie apocalypse or part of world food security

What a great article http://t.co/unqaDQDxrY. lifts the veil on Vandana Shiva and her strange anti GMO crusade. A good if long read in the new yorker magazine. At first I thought he was buying Ms. Shiva's schtick hook line and sinker. As I say a long read but well worth it.
