ACORN and the Just Us! Centre for Small Farms present GMO OMG!
ACORN's Grow A Farmer Program and the Just Us! Centre for Small Farms are pleased to present the fantastic new documentary, GMO OMG.
All proceeds support ACORN's Grow A Farmer Fund, promoting the future of organic (and GMO-free) farmers!
Who controls the future of your food? GMO OMG explores the systematic corporate takeover and potential loss of humanity’s most precious and ancient inheritance: seeds. Director Jeremy Seifert investigates how loss of seed diversity and corresponding laboratory assisted genetic alteration of food affects his young children, the health of our planet, and freedom of choice everywhere. GMO OMG follows one family’s struggle to live and eat without participating in an unhealthy, unjust, and destructive food system. In GMO OMG, the encroaching darkness of unknown health and environmental risks, chemical toxins, and food monopoly meets with the light of a growing global movement to take back what we have lost. Has the global food system been irrevocably hijacked? Is there still time to reclaim its purity, protect biodiversity and save ourselves?
