It has been a while since I have done a Take Action post, but thanks to a couple of e-mails from Environmental Working Group (EWG), and a Worsted Witch reminder I have gotten my act together to let you all know about a quick and easy way for you all to help support organic farming.

EWG is very close to their goal of 30,000 signatures, but they are still a couple thousand short. Follow this link to the petition page and take 1 minute to fill out your information (name, e-mail address, and zip-code…seriously, that is all) and press the “Sign now!” button.

“The farm bill, which is reexamined approximately every five years it’s come around again in 2007 determines which U.S. crops will be subsidized by the government, and which will not.” ¹ “Congress is about to vote on a new Farm Bill, which could be the first to include fair funding for organics.” ² You taking the time to sign this petition gets us a step closer to this happening!

You have until Sunday, July 15th to do this. Thank you for your support!

¹Jasmine, Worsted Witch; ²EWG
