South Lake Tahoe will have a March Against Monsanto event on May 25 to coincide with the worldwide demonstration.

Mike Herron is organizing the protest.

It will start at 11am at the Raley’s near Stateline.

“It may not be huge like some events will be, but it will help to raise awareness to further progress our cause,” Herron told Lake Tahoe News. “Consumption of GMO foods, corn syrups, or any major food brands for that matter during the march will be highly frowned upon, so if you want to march, bring healthy snacks and water.”

    This short article doesn’t give enough information. Please elaborate for those who don’t know the background and reasons for your complaints. Not everyone keeps up with details in the news.

    Here is a link Laura, this is an ongoing fight for our rights to know what we are eating. Genetically Modified Organisms otherwise will be put in our foods without a requirement for them to be labeled. Get educated this is a very serious situation that could have permanent ramifications for everyone on the planet. Why let one company have control over the entire food supply…

    You won’t hear about these things on the “News” Monsanto pays good to keep us out of the news. Aren’t people aware about the Monsanto protection act that got snuck through. The same with seed patents, people need to become aware and that is what Saturday’s event is about, raising awareness and protecting real farmers…
