About Somos la Semilla: "We Are the Seed"
Somos la Semilla is a network of grassroots groups, organizations, funders, farmers, and clinics in Arizona-Sonora borderlands working together to grow our future through healthy food systems. The group was born from the Healthy Food, Healthy Future conference in Dragoon, Arizona, which was convened in February 2010 to discuss the future of a healthy, working local food system in Southeastern Arizona.

Food Justice Workshop Wednesday October 5th
Jen
Chapin, folksinger and activist, hosts a workshop, Wednesday, October
5th called "Food Justice A New Movement to Nourish America.” This
country has become very efficient at providing so-called “emergency
food” to people in need, often at the expense of asking fundamental
questions about justice, jobs, and sustainability. How can we join
together as eaters, advocates, farmers, entrepreneurs, public servants,
and artists, to help build the new movement for good, local, sustainable
food for all?visit www.globalchangemultimedia.org for more information
