[Peace] Message from Cody and his mom, LISA BK: Common Ground/Oxfam event at the co-op

[jandurl]

Certain farm and trade policies in the United States and European Union are creating hardships for family farmers across the world.  Decisions we make as consumers have an impact on Farm Policy, which in turn has an impact on individuals across the world.

Mr. Soloba Mady Keïta, a cotton farmer from Mali, will be touring Illinois to speak about his life as a farmer in West Africa. Come learn about the life of an organically-farming family, find out how US policies can be changed to help people everywhere live in dignity, and what you can do to help.
