Get to know Robin Mather of MOTHER EARTH NEWS.

What are you going to speak about at the MOTHER EARTH NEWS FAIR?

I’m going to talk about how the food sovereignty movement can get Big Ag and Big Government out of your kitchen. I’ll have information about how the tiny town of Sedgwick, Maine, has passed a law which forbids federal interference in local food sales, so local dairymen can sell raw milk to customers who want that, for example. I’ll describe how the law was drafted and why, how the new law is playing out, and have handouts on how the audience can get their communities to adopt similar laws and ordinances.

What are you most looking forward to sharing with FAIR attendees?
