The Less=More Coalition Needs Your Help!
The Less=More Coalition is looking for volunteers to help collect petition signatures at farmers markets around the state
this summer. We need help harnessing the voice of concerned consumers
like you who want to help even the playing field for sustainable
agriculture in Michigan by sending a message to Garry Lee, the
Michigan State Conservationist for the Natural Resources Conservation
Service, to stop using taxpayer subsidies to support polluting factory
farms.
Lee has the power to reapportion how Farm Bill subsidies are distributed, and right now, they heavily favor massive animal factories that cram thousands of animals into warehouses and pollute our water and air. (If you haven't already, click here to send him an email.)

If you have an hour or two to spare this summer, spend it at your local farmers market getting signatures for our petition! A small amount of your time can yield big benefits for sustainable farming in Michigan. For details, contact gail.philbin@sierraclub.org. Thank you!
