Agrobusiness and the criminal government officials who work for them in Congress and the White House would like you to think that growing food is a difficult and hazardous process and too complicated for normal people to do safely.
Common sense initiatives like the one described in this video threaten Agri-business so Monsanto drafted a law to essentially regulate (i.e. criminalize) home production of food. It passed and it's on the books. Let's see them enforce it.
Meanwhile, if you're looking for a positive group to contribute to, you can hardly do better than BK Farmyards.
People growing their own food is the ULTIMATE subversive act.
