Farmers rights trampled by Monsanto Corporation

Sonoma

Come hear farmer Percy Schmeiser tell his David and Goliath story.

Percy Schmeiser is a Saskatchewan farmer, natural seed breeder, and

former mayor of his town. His canola crop has been cross-contaminated

by genetically engineered (GE) crops developed and patented by

Monsanto Corporation. This genetic pollution destroyed Schmeiser's

life work and livelihood of 50 years of natural seed breeding.

Monsanto demanded that Schmeiser pay them for the use of their

patented genetics in spite of the fact that Schmeiser did not plant

their seed, nor want their GE genetics. He has spent his life savings

and mortgaged his house to fight the legal battle for farmer's

rights. Support the struggle against genetically engineered crops.

Sliding scale fee $10 to $100. All proceeds go towards Percy

Schmeiser's legal fees. Location: The Commons, Sonoma State
