“When scientist Arpad Pusztai reported that genetically modified (GM) foods caused serious health problems in rats, he was a hero at his prestigious UK institute — for two days. But after two phone calls (apparently) from the Prime Minister’s office, he was fired, gagged, and mercilessly attacked. When UC Berkely professor Ignacio Chapela discovered GM corn contamination in Mexico, he too faced a firestorm of distortion and denial that left him struggling to salvage his career. Find out how the biotech industry “engineers” the truth and what they are trying to hide from you.”
Directions:
From Eugene, take I-5 South to the Creswell exit. Turn left at the light and go back over the freeway. Take the first left (towards Ray’s Food Place), then take the first right (before Ray’s) onto Melton Rd. Creswell Coffee Co. is on the left next to Bi-Mart.

This information comes to us from the Willamette Valley Sustainable Food Alliance. Please take a moment to respond to them with your position on whether or not GMO sugar beets should be allowed in the Willamette Valley. We need to band together with all our local food groups and put forth one message: NO GMOs!
 Special AnnouncementGreetings Members of the WVSFA,
It has recently come to the board’s attention that an important decision is about to be made in regards to the deregulation of GMO Roundup Ready Sugar Beets (RRSBs). This will unquestionably affect some of our local farmers. In response to this we have two letters:
1) To inform you about how to get more information about the subject, how to voice your opinion/ concerns, and to ask our members if they think the WVSFA as a whole should take a stance on the issue and submit our own letter.
2) To inform you of the stance that GMO Free Eugene is taking on this subject and allow you the opportunity to sign on to their letter.
Please read over the documents (see links below) and let us know if you would like the alliance as a whole to take a stance and write a letter against the deregulation of RRSBs. Please, feel free to take an individual stand and sign on to the GMO Free Eugene Letter.
Please contact Leda with any information regarding your stance and/ or if you have any questions or concerns.
As always, thanks for your continued support and for your hard work at keeping our food systems clean!
Sincerely,
Your WVSFA Board of Directors

Saturday, March 26 · 12:00pm – 3:00pm

We want Truth in Labeling so we will know what is in the foods we are buying. This rally will coincide with the national Rally being held in Washington, DC. Everyone is encouraged to attend!
These are our demands:
- We have the right to know and want GMOs labeled.
- We want factory farmed animal products labeled
- We want independent, long-term studies done on the safety of GMOs.
- We want organics preserved.
-Make intelligent signs with facts about Monsanto and their impact.
-Make hoodies or jackets with Millions against Monsanto on it.
-Read up and be prepared with some talking points about the issues.
-Remain peaceful and non-violent at all times.
-Prepare fliers to distribute that inform people about Monsanto, links to further reading, suggestions of books and articles, etc.
-Genetically modified foods are not safe, for the environment, or for people.
-Genetically modified foods should be forced to be labeled as such.
-We are tired of Monsanto’s monopoly on the food industry and it’s hold over the FDA and the White House.
-We want people to become informed about Monsanto and the food industry in general.

Your Right To Know and GMO-Free Eugene present a film of a lecture by Jeffrey M. Smith from the Institute for Responsible Technology given to the Weston Price Foundation.
The film will be shown at:
Cozmic Pizza at 199 W 8th Street
Thursday, November 11th
6-8 PM
The Eugene Chapter WAPF presented this DVD in January, and we highly recommend that anyone who missed our showing attend now. It would be great to bring a friend to this movie, especially one that is NOT already committed to healthy food.
This presentation has a very powerful message. Jeffrey Smith not only shows the horrors of GMOs (and they are horrible), but he also left us with an inspiring message that with a little work we can tip the balance against GMO foods. Please come view this inspiring DVD, but plan to stay until the very end!
This DVD was recorded at the 2008 Wise Traditions Conference.
“If you haven’t already removed GMOs from your diet, get ready to make a change. Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) have been linked to thousands of toxic and allergic reactions, thousands of sick, sterile and dead livestock, and damage to virtually every organ and system studied in lab animals. Scientists who discovered problems have been fired, threatened and gagged, and reporters and critics have been silenced. Now you can learn the problems, find out how to protect yourself, and take powerful measures to help end the genetic engineering of our food supply.”

RSVP:
We need to have at least 5 people RSVP in order to reserve the space at Market of Choice, and there is a maximum of 25 seats available. So I strongly urge you to RSVP if you think you will be attending. If your plans change feel free to just show up, but only the first 25 people who have RSVP’d will have a space reserved.
We are requesting a $5-10 donation to the Eugene Chapter at the door.
(No one should miss a showing because of cost, so a sliding scale for low-income people is $1-4 or volunteer to help the Eugene Chapter).
