Please take 2 minutes out of your day to remind your representatives that Nevada organics are important to us and that the Nevada Department of Agriculture needs funding specifically for an Organic Certification Program.
ORGANIC is way beyond NON GMO...it means no use of harmful and toxic chemical, pesticides and herbicides, the most common being glyphosate in Monsanto's Round Up. Last week the World Health Organization published a scientific article directly relating cancer in certain mammals to glyphosate. Not probable but DIRECT CANCER LINKAGE: http://www.iarc.fr/en/media-centre/iarcnews/pdf/MonographVolume112.pdf
If you are a business or organization in support of Nevada Organics please send me your logo so that we can add you to the growing list! amber@greatbasinfood.coop
