The Food Modernization act could drastically limit our ability to have a viable farm. It could also make our current composting practices illegal. We distill some of the key issues, and how to take action. Please note the deadline to take action is by midnight on Friday.

Note that this could impact you even if you want to have a small income from a garden. For those of us who have scaled up, it has a potential to severely impact our livelihood.
 
We can fix it! We just need some baling wire, some WD-40, a bit of duct tape and this tiny ad:
