In cahoots with other Food Freedom organizations, like the Global Alliance for Seed Freedom, we encourage you to join others around the globe NOW to celebrate:
Seed Freedom, Food Freedom and Earth Democracy!
Here's how we're celebrating in the USA: #imalunaticfarmer
We're going to have the most massive, creative and impactful seed sow of all time! We've even got gift certificates for those of you that go above and beyond! Who said agtivism had to be boring?
Step 1: Help Fund, Get Seeds!
For every $5 you donate to the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund, you'll receive a Lettuce Be Lunatic Farmers Food Freedom seed packet...and that's when the fun begins!
All seed packets were custom made by Baker Creek Heirloom Seeds and contain Rocky Top Heritage Lettuce Mix. This happens to be the perfect time of year to plant them! Lettuce grows best in cooler temperatures, like the spring and fall in most areas, and can even tolerate a light frost.
Step 2: Have Fun, Sow, Spread or Save Seeds
You can do a lot of good and have a lot of fun with even one pack of seeds!
* One will seed a pot * Two will seed a row * Three will seed a garden * Four will seed food freedom
Here's our Top 5 Uses for Food Freedom Seeds. What's yours?
- Be the hit of your next seed swap when you swagger in with these babes in hand! Sweet!
- Send a seed packet to your favorite inspector, legislator or politician with a note thanking them for their support of food freedom...even if they really haven't been supportive. Psych!
- Feed the stranded! Launch the first ever "Seed Packet Message in a (BPA-Free) Bottle", to somehow reach someone somewhere on a deserted island.
- Drop one in a new neighbor's mailbox with a note "Lettuce Be Friends". Awww...
- Stuff seed packets in a Christmas stocking, with the garden hoe or pitch fork of your choice. FTCLDF attorney advisory: we are not responsible for damages to stockings, mantlepieces or eyes.
