Last night we showed a part of SOS at a Farm Bill briefing for supporters of CALCAN, the California Climate Action Network, an umbrella organization for a tight group of California non-profits that are coming together to organize around the Farm Bill.
Deborah spoke briefly about the imperative that those aware of what a sustainable Farm Bill would look like have in the next year. She mentioned the need to respect the soil at the base of any solutions that may change the way the US treats and funds agriculture.
Together with Tom Philpott, and Dan Imhoff,Deborah made powerful case for the support of CALCAN, and for everything that needs to be defended by supporters of Sustainable Agriculture.

Symphony of the Soil had a very successful Work in Progress screening at Cal State Fresno this evening. Over 700 students, farmers, faculty and community members attended. A rousing discussion about soil management techniques and pressing issues in the surrounding San Joaquin Valley ensued.
