 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.
