Citizens and farmers in Butte County California have successfully gathered
enough petition signatures to place a measure on the ballot that would
ban genetically engineered (GE) crops in the county. Mendocino County
(CA) passed a similar measure earlier this year and Humboldt, Marin, San
Luis Obisbo, Sonoma, and others will likely place this issue on their
November ballots as well. Join OCA’s "GE Free Zones" campaign
to help support these efforts. /old_articles/ge-free.htm
