Went to a very interesting lecture and panel discussion on the need to expand locally grown organic food and the battle against companies like Monsanto and Dow that are poisoning our food supply.
The speakers, Dan and Melinda Hemmelgarn, were out of Columbia, Missouri, and they combined the skills of
photography and dietetics with a heavy dose of activism. They were co-presented by AHA and the Source. Although the audience was fairly small, the excitement of the discussion after the 7:00 PM presentation lasted until
close to 10 PM.
Even after the panel there was still continued discussion over a variety of delicious goodies.
