Sno-Valley Tilth has proposed defining
agriculture as 'food for people'. This definition of agriculture would
protect farmers against future threats from non-farming interests. These
non-farming interests have already had a major impact on the availability of
farmland in areas designated as Agricultural Production Districts. Sno-Valley
Tilth wants to make sure that the Agricultural Production Districts in King
County are used for agricultural production.
What you can do to protect farming:
1) Participate in the future of farming survey and tell the county that
agriculture is 'food for people'.
The survey can be found HERE.
2) Let the county know that you support the Sno-Valley
Tilth statement.
The Sno-Valley Tilth
statement can be found here.
3)
Join the efforts of Sno-Valley Tilth farmers
and support your local food economy.
