Just Food CSA in NYC Conference
Sunday, February 28, 2010
8:30 am – 6:00 pm
Teachers College, Columbia University

You may be eating cloned meat without knowing it – the FDA approved its use a year and a half ago, with no legislation in place requiring it to be labeled as such. What are the ramifications – social, physical, economic – of eating cloned meat? Extensive research has not yet proven the safety of cloned meat, and whatever its possible benefits or harmful effects, the Clean Plates team agrees that we’d rather know where our meat comes from. You can rest assured that Clean-Plates approved restaurants source their products from sustainable and responsible farms, so you know what you’re eating, even when you can’t prepare your own meal at home. But when you can buy your own meat, consider doing so through a CSA, a local source that you trust. Our friends at Just Food have made it easy to find a great CSA here in NewYork at www.justfood.org/csa.
