Amid increasing concerns about the safety of the food we feed our families and pets, Congress is working on renewal of the "Farm Bill," a process that happens every five years.

Visit Support Healthy, Fresh, Local Food to add your name to the petition showing legislators your support for change and innovation in the US farm and food system. For every 100 messages sent from your state, the Farm and Food Project will hand deliver a package of healthy, local food to your Senators and representatives.

FarmandFoodProject.org has a variety of background information about the bill, the issues, and the benefits of strong local economies and affordable, safe food that a responsible and fair Farm Bill can foster.
