Mark Winne -- community food activist, writer, and trainer -- is coming to
Seattle on February 7 and will be giving a lecture at
6pm<http://www.facebook.com/events/334663839901145/>at the Sunset Hill
Club in Ballard. His latest book,
*Food Rebels, Guerrilla Gardeners, and Smart-Cookin’ Mamas* challenges us
to go beyond eating local food to become part of a larger solution that
demands a system that sustains not just our bodies, but also our souls. Our
friends from Readers to
Eaters<http://www.facebook.com/events/334663839901145/#%21/pages/Readers-To-Eaters/85667658773>will
be selling copies. About:

*Despite the rapid growth of an alternative food system – local and
sustainable food production, farmers’ markets, the public’s rising food
consciousness – we become more dependent everyday on industrial agriculture
whose representatives insist that it is the only way to feed a hungry
world. In the face of such assertions, we must ask if our dependence on
such a system threatens to supplant individual self-reliance. Will personal
freedom succumb finally and forever to the dominant voice of authority? Are
we at risk of sacrificing our democratic voice to self-appointed governing
elites? These are no longer speculative questions suitable only for
philosophers, but real-life concerns set squarely on the plate of every
eater.*

We will be tabling alongside several other food and gardening organizations
-- so stop by and say hello! And maybe even pick up a packet of our Marra
Farm-grown rainbow chard seeds...
