Join food justice and NON-GMO food advocates for two days of plenaries,
discussion groups and networking opportunities around SEEDS, SOIL,
SOVEREIGNTY AND ACCOUNTABILITY. Get the tools you need to support the
movement and advocate for NON GMO food!


This annual conference is the largest gathering in the US focused on
educating and creating awareness about the implications of GMO seeds. As an
international platform to share, learn, and launch campaigns in support of a
FREE GMO food supply, speakers from various backgrounds will examine GMO
seed’s relation to health, social justice, environment, and corporate
consolidation within local to global contexts.


Conference organizer, the Biosafety Alliance, is a cross-sector, multi-level
and inter-ethnic alliance of people and organizations dedicated to
