American Farmland Trust is providing tools for people to use when lobbying Congress on the farm bill. It’s on a new section of their website called “Our Healthy Land.”

“Congress is Talking About Your Food” and the corresponding website, www.ourhealthyland.org, give consumers an overview of the federal farm bill, and suggests ways in which they can become informed and join the 2007 Farm Bill debate. The website also offers consumers access to specific resources for further information concerning U.S. farm and food policy. To obtain quantities of the brochure for distribution, please call (800) 370-4879, ext. 17.

The brochure and supporting website are a joint project Coleman Natural Foods (CNF) and American Farmland Trust (AFT) through the Coleman Eco-Project 2015, a decade-long conservation program created to raise awareness about the link between conservation, healthy land, healthy food and healthy people, and connect consumers with where and how their food is raised and produced.
