Anti-GMO Forces Seek Legislative Help

Wikimedia Commons

Jackson County is that rarest of Oregon counties, the only one that has banned the growing of genetically modified (GMO) crops. 

It took a vote by the people and action by the legislature to make it happen. 

Now anti-GMO farmers and their supporters want the legislature to allow more GMO-free zones. 

is the mechanism; anti-GMO campaigner Elise Higley is firmly behind it.  She and State Representative Pam Marsh of Ashland are our guests.
