Would you like to be told you cannot have your organic garden in the back of your yard or that you need to us pesticides on your little strawberry bush or even your non-organic vegetable garden? Me either. I am sure you believe that having a choice is the American way and our right as homeowners or even renters.
Well get this! The Mid America CropLife Association (MACA) represents chemical companies that produce pesticides, and they are angry that Michelle Obama isn’t using chemicals in her organic garden at the White House. Wow!
Over 50,000 people have joined our campaign against the pesticide company lobbyists attacking Michelle Obama’s organic garden. MACA went on to publish a letter it had sent to the First Lady asking her to consider using chemicals – or what they call “crop protection products” – in her garden.
Michelle Obama has done America a great service by publicizing the importance of nutritious food for kids (she’s growing the garden in partnership with a local elementary school class) as well as locally grown produce as an important, environmentally sustainable food source. She is promoting the American “choice”, as I call it as well as the mere subject of nutritious foods and sustainable foods.
Please help and take action and then tell your friends.
And thank you for working to build a more organic world and an America with choices at the bare minimum
