What's For Dinner?

Jim Gerritsen: Jim Gerritsen is president of the Organic Seed Growers Association (OSGATA). He was heading to Washington, DC, to demonstrate and attend a hearing in the lawsuit brought by 100's of farmers and OSGATA'S members to prevent Monsanto from bringing lawsuits against farmers over "patent infringement" after Monsanto seeds naturally spread to nearby farms. Jim discusses "the right to farm without the threat of harassment by the world's largest biotech seed company" in terms of farmers' and consumers' rights as citizens in a democracy. Jim Gerritsen is the Maine potato farmer we interviewed in January of 2012.
