New proposed changes to the definition of genetically modified foods by the Food Standards Australia are inbound. Only novel DNA would need to be labelled as GMO, and plants that have been gene edited but not contain new DNA would be exempt from labeling. This threatens the integrity of the organic certification and removes the consumers right to know what is in their food. These changes are good for industry, big industrial agricultural producers, the biotechnology firms and have nothing to do with optimal human health. They are a direct assault on consumer choice. Paola Crofts, regenerative organic farmer and owner of Tall Poppy Farm in Mt Macedon, Victoria and I discussed this in the recent Fire Pit Chat (recording below). What you can do 1. INFORM YOURSELF - read this summary by the organic cooperative and register on the blog link above to be kept up to date. Watch the video recording below.

Abby supplies fully grass fed, regeneratively raised water buffalo meat here on the northern rivers NSW. It was fantastic to see these animals in a domesticated setting. They do not receive any pharmaceutical inputs. Abby is working on a dairy which should be up and running by end of year. Buffalo mozzarella inbound!
