My name is Lynn, I'm 29 years old and I work for The Cornucopia Institute. We are a non-profit dedicated to advocacy for organic foods and economic justice for small-scale farming. We release a lot of news on our projects, and post even more from others around these topics. You can visit our website regularly: www.cornucopia.org. I love my job and support our staff and our mission a great deal, and have decided to share our news on opednews.
