Sept. 26^th and 27^th

Food and Seed Sovereignty Conference
 

The Native Earth Bio Culture Council in conjunction with the Institute of American Indian Arts and Pueblo of Tesuque farm program is hosting the fourth annual Symposium For Food and Seed Sovereignty September 25 & 26, 2009.  The Symposium will include internationally renowned speakers as well as local and regional experts in the areas of food security and sustainable ecology and a heritage seed exchange as well as panels on youth issues in the 21^st century, food and nutrition, water issues and traditional farming, land restoration and medicinal herbs.  An important theme will be pro-active community response in support of sustainable communities, ecologies, health and indigenous spiritual practices. There is a vendors market featuring natural earth friendly products, information and services. These events, we hope, will contribute tremendously toward the goal of making the entire nation aware of the need for sustainable agriculture and the Genetic modified food issue. We record the conference presentations and panels from which we will extract video clips for the virtual conference on the world wide web.
