<span style="font-family:inherit">Mark Winne -- community food activist, writer, and trainer -- is coming to Seattle on February 7 and will be giving a <a href="http://www.facebook.com/events/334663839901145/" target="_blank">lecture at 6pm</a> at the Sunset Hill Club in Ballard. His latest book, <i>Food Rebels, Guerrilla Gardeners, and Smart-Cookin’ Mamas</i> 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 </span><a href="http://www.facebook.com/events/334663839901145/#%21/pages/Readers-To-Eaters/85667658773" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:inherit">Readers to Eaters</span></a><span style="font-family:inherit"> will be selling copies. About:</span><br>

<br>
<i><span style="font-family:inherit">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.</span></i><br>

<br>
<span style="font-family:inherit">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...</span><br>
