Food for Maine's Future seeks to build a just, secure, and democratic food system which protects
Maine farmers and the environment from corporate control. We empower farmers and local communities
to define their local food systems, and promote sustainable local alternatives in schools and in the fields.

Defining the Future

Bio-fuels, genetically modified trees, grass, salmon— as well as other plants and animals— designed to produce pharmaceutical or industrial chemicals, and other forms of corporate and government control will impact every farmer in Maine.  Our Defining the Future Campaign seeks to identify and address these issues before they threaten Maine farmers, consumers, and the environment. 

  • Workshops and other educational events focused on GE Grass, Trees, and Pharmaceutical Crops
  • Using market pressure  and legislation to prevent the introduction of these threats and to promote sustainable alternatives
