 Release:\nOctober 24, 2012\n \nCentral Coast Farmers Push for Food 
 Labeling\n \nSanta Cruz, CA – A new network of California farmers, 
 including from the Santa Cruz and Monterey area, is speaking out in favor 
 of GMO labeling this Wednesday. These farmers are making it clear that 
 thousands of California farmers support simple, clear labels on foods sold 
 in the state – like those proposed by Proposition 37. Following the 
 farmers’ statements, Santa Cruz Mayor Lane will share a proclamation 
 about World Food Day and his support for GMO labeling.\n \nThe organic and 
 conventional farmers are also responding to a series of misleading 
 advertisements that have blanketed television over the past three weeks and 
 are funded by the world’s six largest pesticide corporations. Farmers 
 across California believe that labeling not only serves California 
 farmers’ economic interests, very few of whom actually grow genetically 
 engineered crops, but also maintains honesty and trust with California 
 consumers.\n \nWHERE: Santa Cruz Farmers Market\nCedar and Lincoln Streets, 
 downtown Santa Cruz\n(We will gather by the bike parking)\n \nWHO: Farmers 
 in favor of GMO Labeling\n \nWHEN: Wednesday, October 24th, 4:30pm\n 
 \nVISUALS: Farmers, signs, farmers market in operation\n
