If you have to Eat Meat ...Links to Good Organic Farms

ORGANIC VS. NATURAL MEATS

Greensbury Market never refers to our meats as natural. That's because we've chosen a much higher standard: organic.

There are no official guidelines for natural foods. The only way we can promise our customers a truly superior product is to embrace the USDA's very strict guidelines for certified organic meats. Look for the USDA seal on our package. What this means to you:

organic farmers do not use antibiotics or synthetic growth hormones.
organic meat comes from animals that are given 100 percent organic feed.
organic animals are given access to the outdoors and/or pastures.
organic farms do no use most conventional pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, bioengineering, or ionizing radiation.
organic farmers emphasize the use of renewable resources and the conservation of soil and water to enhance environmental quality for future generations.
organic farms are inspected by a Government-approved certifier to make sure the farmer is following all the rules necessary to meet USDA organic standards. Companies that handle or process organic meats must be certified, too.
For more information about certified organic foods and farms, you can visit the USDA website at www.usda.gov.


HEALTH BENEFITS

When you choose Greensbury meats, you never have to worry about how and where the animals were raised. Our team insists on high quality meats from people we trust: a select network of organic family farms that follow traditional, healthy practices. If you are concerned about eating nutritious, delicious foods with the fewest possible health risks, organic is the right choice. Benefits include:

Healthier, more traditional, more attentive farming practices. Animals on certified organic farms are raised with special attention to their health and wellbeing. They have access to fresh air, sunshine, and the outdoors. Organically raised animals grow at their own natural pace, with no artificial hormones. By following free-ranging or free-grazing practices, organic farms not only treat animals more humanely, but also improve the animals' health and reduce stress.

No hormones, antibiotics or GMOs. Organic livestock are never given antibiotics or synthetic hormones such as the genetically engineered bovine growth hormone. Their feed is organic and vegetarian. By eating all-organic meats, you also limit your intake of genetically modified foods, because organic farmers cannot raise genetically modified crops or livestock or use production aids that are genetically modified.

Good old-fashioned nutrition. Organic meat is naturally rich in protein, vitamins and minerals such as iron. Serving organic beef, chicken and pork is a great way to make sure your family stays strong and healthy. Organic animals are raised the way nature intended, in an environment with fewer toxins, no pesticides, healthier soil, and 100% organic all-vegetarian feed.



ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS

At Greensbury, we love the great taste of organic meats – and we're also mindful of how everyday food choices may effect the environment for generations to come. We partner with a network of farmers who are committed to using organic agricultural practices. These practices:

Reduce unhealthy chemicals and toxins in our environment. Organic animals are never fed hormones or antibiotics. Certified organic farmers do no use most conventional pesticides, synthetic fertilizers, bioengineering, or ionizing radiation. Organic agricultural practices prevent pesticides and other chemicals from getting into the air, earth and water that sustain us.

Build healthy soil. Well-balanced soil is the foundation of healthy, nutritious food. Conventional farming depletes the soil over time. Organic farmers use practices that replenish and build healthy soil.

Protect the water supply. Eliminating polluting chemicals and nitrogen leaching, in combination with soil building, prevents contamination and protects and conserves water resources.

Consume less fossil fuel. Organic farming seeks to make the most efficient use of nonrenewable resources and on-farm resources and integrate, where appropriate, natural biological cycles and controls. Organic farmers use green manures and crop covers, rather than synthetic fertilizers made from petroleum.

Respect and nurture healthy animals and people. Choosing organic is a great way to take care of the people you care about. You can nourish yourself, your family, and the planet by supporting sustainable farming practices and eating foods that are truly good for you.

Greensbury Market brings you certified organic meat for less.  Buy now and save on our delicious variety pack!

With recent beef recalls for the inhumane treatment of downer cows plus the concern over e coli and mad cow disease, Fox News investigated typical supermarket feedlot beef vs the health benefits of grass fed beef.

Fox News spent the day with Dr. Patricia Whisnant. She is a veterinarian, grass farmer, the President of American Grassfed Association, owner of AmericanGrassFedBeef.com and processes USDA certified organic beef for local family farms. Her grass fed beef is certified Free Farmed Humane by American Humane.

Dr. Whisnant states that grass fed beef is healthier for consumers, safer, eco friendly, better for the environment and better for animals.

Fox News did an independent test on AmericanGrassFedBeef.com and supermarket beef. They found AmericanGrassFedBeef.com was higher in protein, lower in fat and cholesterol.

Another One of the Best Whole Food Products..More...Energy..Health ..Peace

Personally for me when I take this product and Vita Synergy for Women it definitely helps me get back to normal. I have an abundance of energy. I am able to handle the stress much better and I am less irritated by certain problems or situations. And I am feeling clearer in my mind...less brain fog. Some of you may understand that brain fog...



Supported by 25 years of research and use, Pure Synergy® remains the standard by which all other green superfood formulas are measured. Based on the original Kirlian research of Dr. Mitchell May and his colleagues at UCLA Medical Center, Pure Synergy’s unique and comprehensive formula captures a multitude of valuable phytonutrients, including lutein, enzymes, chlorophyll, carotenes, beta glucans, iodine, alginates, ellagic acid, anthocyanins, proanthocyanins, quercetin, RNA/DNA, sulforaphane, phycocyanins, GLA, SOD, sitosterols, and zeaxanthin, from some of nature’s most vitalizing and nutrient-rich herbs, algae, grass juices and other foods. These special raw foods provide you with powerful support at the most fundamental levels, and the results can be remarkable! When you receive the deep nourishment necessary to function optimally, your body is able to naturally detoxify, regenerate and sustain abundant physical and mental energy throughout your busy days.

PHYTONUTRIENTS PROVIDE VITAL HEALTH-PROTECTIVE BENEFITS?

“Eat your fruits and vegetables!” We’ve all heard it a thousand times. In fact, scientists and researchers are now recommending nine servings a day of fruits and vegetables. Why so much? Greens and fruits are abundant sources of vitamins and minerals, but, more importantly, they are phytonutrient powerhouses. The phytonutrient compounds that function as a plant’s immune system offer substantial antioxidant and detoxifying benefits to us. We now know that chlorophyll, carotenes, lutein, bioflavonoids, anthocyanins, proanthocyanins and phycocyanins are responsible for many of the health-protective benefits experienced by people who eat diets rich in fruits and vegetables.

Pure Synergy is bursting with vital phytonutrients. Grass juices, algae, sea vegetables, spinach, collards, kale and berries are the richest known sources of many of these precious compounds. More important, Pure Synergy provides these phytonutrients in their natural, synergistic food form. This means that the phytonutrients, vitamins and minerals contained in Pure Synergy enhance and support each other’s activity, providing protective, regenerative and strengthening benefits to you!

Pure Synergy’s cleansing and regenerative grass juices, algae, seaweeds and enzymes are combined with protective fruits and berries and restorative, adaptogenic herbs and mushrooms to enhance natural detoxification and the radiant energy that results from genuine well-being. Unlike many companies, we never add fillers or bulking agents (such as whole grasses, apple fiber or pectin, rice bran or flax), which dilute nutritional potency and are a potential source of genetically modified material. Because the cellulose fiber in whole grass is indigestible, it prevents the grass’s valuable phytonutrients from being released in the digestive system. For this reason, we use only grass juices. In every spoonful of Pure Synergy, you receive densely packed nutrition that intensely nourishes and strengthens every system in your body, resulting in sustained energy, enhanced recovery, mental clarity and overall well-being!

Pure Synergy is special not only because of its extraordinary formula, but also because we meticulously cultivate and protect all the precious constituents contained in it. We work closely with our certified organic growers to ensure the optimal development of enzymes and beneficial phytonutrients in Pure Synergy’s ingredients. These extraordinary herbs and other foods are harvested at their peak of potency and immediately concentrated and dried by utilizing proprietary cool-temperature processes that preserve their energetic and nutritional integrity. Studies have shown that these unique technologies offer unprecedented protection of the enzymes and other valuable phytonutrient constituents. Our Ultra Fresh Packaging™ further protects Pure Synergy from damaging light, oxygen and moisture after bottling.

Pure Synergy's Origins
In 1972, on a rainy Alabama road, Mitchell May's life was changed forever when a speeding car slammed into his vehicle. The collision was so catastrophic that rescuers required 45 minutes to free him from the wreckage, and he was left with many critical injuries. The most serious of these were to his legs, which sustained over 40 fractures as well as severe nerve and muscle damage.

Although his doctors insisted he would never walk again, Mitchell believed differently. Determined to regain the use of his legs, he began his own intensive and unconventional healing program. The results were astonishing. Mitchell made medical history when he regenerated nerve, bone and muscle tissue, which doctors had predicted would be impossible. His healing was so phenomenal that it has been documented and studied by medical researchers and featured in periodicals and documentaries. Today, Mitchell race walks, backpacks and hikes in the canyons near his home.

During his healing process, Mitchell knew it was essential to support his body with the most regenerative, life-enhancing nutrition available. He devoted himself to an intensive study of the nutritional and energetic properties of numerous superfoods and botanicals that possess unique healing properties. He then tried nearly every nutritional product on the market, only to find that none contained the amazing life energy he had observed in his studies or delivered the nutritional support he sought.

With the same focus and determination that he devoted to his healing, Mitchell set out to create an all-natural superfood made with organic ingredients that would truly capture the phenomenal vibrancy and vitality found in nature. For over a decade, he conducted an exhaustive search, obtaining and testing superfoods from around the world. During this time, he experimented with countless formulas, always seeking the "synergy" that would catapult the performance of superfoods to a whole new level.

After many years, Mitchell developed the perfectly balanced formula that captures and intensifies the amazing life energy found in superfoods — Pure Synergy. He then shared Pure Synergy with friends, patients, doctors, wholistic health care practitioners and others. Their responses were universally enthusiastic and included many grateful reports of increased energy, mental clarity and vitality and renewed well-being.

As more and more people were drawn to the extraordinary qualities of Pure Synergy, Mitchell established The Synergy Company™ to meet demand for his ultimate superfood formula and other health-enhancing products. At our award-winning production facility, where we are certified to produce organic and kosher products, Mitchell personally supervises the entire production of Pure Synergy. His careful attention ensures Pure Synergy continues to offer the same profound benefits that he and his family have enjoyed for over 20 years.

The Quality of Pure Synergy
Your health matters to us! Unlike most nutritional products, Pure Synergy does not contain any fillers or artificial chemicals, preservatives or sweeteners. Nor do we use any ingredients that have been irradiated or fumigated, that have unsafe levels of pesticide or herbicide residues or that contain any pathogenic bacteria. Moreover, we completely avoid the use of genetically engineered materials. From using superior ingredients to building our own state-of-the-art production facility, we spare no effort in producing exceptional nutritional products at incomparable prices. If you purchased the ingredients in Pure Synergy individually (in quantities equal to those contained in a large bottle), the cost would exceed $180.00!

Organic & Wildcrafted Ingredients: Pure Synergy is made with organic and wildcrafted ingredients. This not only assures maximum nutrition, but also protects our environment and bodies from harmful toxins. Pure Synergy’s wildcrafted ingredients are sustainably harvested from their natural environments — the purest sources for some superfoods. All our farmers and wildcrafters take special care with the botanicals in Pure Synergy: ethical wildcrafting practices ensure that natural habitats will continue to thrive, and all Pure Synergy’s ingredients are harvested at the optimal stage of growth, when their nutrients have fully matured.

Perfectly Protected: Many nutritional components are highly sensitive to heat. Fresh freeze-drying, cold-drying and Refractance Window drying fully protect the heat-sensitive bioactive constituents and phytonutrients of Pure Synergy’s botanicals. We also utilize special cold-milling equipment. Studies have demonstrated that these unique technologies offer unprecedented protection of all Pure Synergy’s valuable nutrients.

Concentrated & Standardized: When appropriate, we concentrate and standardize select ingredients, using slow, nonchemical processes. Our full-spectrum, standardized concentrates are many times more potent than those created by other methods.

Researched & Tested: In our ongoing research for Pure Synergy, we consult experts in the fields of nutrition and Chinese and Western herbalism and medicine. Additionally, Pure Synergy’s ingredients are subjected to 200 tests for purity at a USDA-approved, FDA-registered laboratory. These tests guarantee that Pure Synergy contains only the highest-quality ingredients.

State-of-the-Art Production: Pure Synergy is blended and bottled at our award-winning facility, where we are certified to manufacture organic and kosher products. We actively support nonpolluting, sustainable energy by participating in the Blue Sky wind power program at the 100% level.

Ultra Fresh Packaging™: Glass is the only packaging material that is 100% inert and impermeable (research shows that plastic bottles don’t fully protect against nutrient-robbing oxygen, and they leach chemicals into food). We vacuum-seal Pure Synergy in light-resistant, recyclable glass bottles, utilizing our Ultra Fresh Packaging process. During this process, an oxygen absorber packet is placed in each bottle. The bottles are then hermetically sealed with induction technology to protect all Pure Synergy’s valuable constituents.

Vegetarian & Kosher: Pure Synergy is a vegetarian, certified kosher product and is 100% pure food. It is available as a powder and in vegetable capsules.

Botox Kills Animals Better Than it Kills Wrinkles

The BUAV has released details of a recent undercover investigation inside a UK animal-testing laboratory. Among the findings was the realization that the lab is poisoning 74,000 mice per year specifically for what grand purpose? Botox testing. During the investigator's time in the lab, these tens of thousands of animals were being used in LD50 toxicity tests -- LD50 refers to the dose of toxic substance required to kill 50% of those animals tested.
After the researchers injected the mice with the botulinum toxin, the tiny animals "became increasingly paralysed, eventually gasping for breath and suffocating to death. The degree of suffering is appalling. No pain relief was provided for the mice."
Researchers killed the mice who survived the experiment's poisoning by subjecting them to carbon dioxide poisoning or by breaking their necks. The investigator reports that for the latter, new staff members were trained to break the necks of mice with a ballpoint pen, but during this training, they "sometimes broke the backs of mice rather than their necks," a terribly painful experience for the mice that even more seasoned researchers apparently inflicted on some of the mice as well.
And all this suffering and killing -- of 74,000 animals -- took place when, as is so often the case, there are alternatives. The BUAV has tips for taking action in this case, particularly if you're based in the UK. See also the American Anti-Vivisection Society, the National Anti-Vivisection Society, and the Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine for other ongoing U.S. campaigns against animal experimentation to which you can add your voice and signature.

Undercover Investigation: Veal Calves Abused at Vermont Slaughter Plant

See the HSUS undercover video that led authorities to shut down the Bushway Packing slaughter plant. This footage includes inhumane handling and slaughter of days-old veal calves.
An HSUS investigation at a slaughter facility in Vermont shows stomach-turning cruelty to veal calves. As you can see in this video, the plant's co-owner and other workers abused animals too weak to stand in order to get them to their feet -- including in front of a USDA inspector who watched but failed to stop the abuse. In one case, a partially decapitated calf appeared to be still conscious. Another scene shows a calf who appears to be conscious while skinned alive.

The people responsible for this sickening abuse must be held accountable. But we also must examine the broader agricultural policies and enforcement problems that lead to the mistreatment of young calves, many of whom are too weak to stand and walk to their own slaughter. For example, a regulatory loophole that allows downed veal calves to go to slaughter provides a financial incentive for producers to abuse these infant animals.

TAKE ACTION
Please ask the U.S. Department of Agriculture to take prompt action to prevent this kind of abuse from ever happening again.

Everyone Should Read this Article- have a open mind

NaturalNews) by- Mike Adams

Canadian filmmaker Brent Leung isn't winning any friends in the pharmaceutical industry these days. His breakthrough documentary "House of Numbers" features jaw-dropping interviews with doctors, researchers and even the co-discoverer of HIV himself (Luc Montagnier), all of whom reveal startling information calling into question the "official" explanation of HIV and AIDS.

An exclusive trailer from House of Numbers is now available on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsOl...

More information about the film is available at www.HouseOfNumbers.com

The film isn't publicly available yet, as it's been screened in film festivals around the world. Check the available screening events at the film's website: www.HouseOfNumbers.com

Because of the game-changing statements heard from numerous health authorities in this film, it threatens the very foundations of the HIV / AIDS industry. Pharmaceutical companies are fronting a specific mythology about AIDS that maximizes their profits from AIDS drugs and (failed) vaccines, but that mythology is about to be dismantled when House of Numbers is released in theaters nationwide over the next few months.

This could be the documentary that shatters Big Pharma's false paradigms about HIV and AIDS.


The AIDS testing hoax

In the film, Brent Leung subjects himself to an HIV test and discovers that a "diagnosis" of being HIV positive has more to do with the answers you provide to lifestyle questions than any specific microbe appearing in your blood. The diagnosis of AIDS -- as well as the very definition -- is also apparently so wishy-washy that increasing numbers of well-trained scientists are now questioning whether AIDS exists at all.

"The presently available data does not prove the existence of HIV," says one health expert interviewed for the film. Another expert says, "The more diseases they could lump into these AIDS categories, the more patients they could catch."

"I think HIV totally has turned out not to be the cause of AIDS. HIV has turned out not to be!" says another interviewee.

"We can be exposed to HIV many times without being ... infected," says Dr Luc Montagnier, the Nobel prize-winning virologist credited with the co-discovery of HIV. "Our immune system creates [antibodies] within a few weeks, if you have a good immune system."

The documentary film exposes the sharp contradictions in current scientific opinion about HIV / AIDS. "As I started questioning scientists and delving further into testing protocols and statistical modeling and science, I began to see a lot of the contradictions that they had amongst themselves," said filmmaker Brent Leung. "One of the things that became apparent to me is how important it is to question everything that we're told and not automatically accept any fact as truth."

One bizarre thing the film exposes is the ever-shifting definition of "AIDS." In the United States, the official definition has been rewritten three times, and definitions vary widely around the world. AIDS isn't simply the presence of the HIV virus; it's a fictitious disease label that's attached to a list of symptoms that continues to expand as the drug companies attempt to ensnare yet more victims into the AIDS label trap.

The experts sound off

House of Numbers is not a "fringe" film featuring dissenting opinions from conspiracy theorists. Rather, it is a lucid, intelligent collection of conversations with some of the world's top virologists and Nobel prize-winning scientists, including former experts from the CDC, the WHO and UNAIDS. Many are speaking out against the conventional AIDS mythology for the first time on camera.

Those interviewed for the film include Dr. Robert Gallo, Dr. Luc Montagnier, Dr. Michael Gottlieb, Dr. Joe Sonnabend, Dr. Kary Mullis, James Curran, Dr. Peter Piot, Dr. James Chin, Dr. Peter Duesberg and many others.

The film has already received "Best Documentary" and other awards from the many film festivals where it has been featured. Momentum is building for the film, and mainstream distribution looks like a healthy possibility for 2010.

"My main hope is that it educates people about the fact that this isn't a clear cut issue," says Leung. "I also hope it empowers people - that it causes them to question not just HIV and AIDS, but all facets of issues which impact our lives. I think we should further explore what we don't know, and to welcome further discussion, because that will help us to know more and become more informed."

My take on the film

I've served as the editor of NaturalNews for six years, and in that time, I've watched the pharmaceutical industry engage in rampant disease mongering in order to push their high-profit pills. They've done it with psychiatric disorders, high cholesterol and many other conditions. I've also watched how the cancer industry is based entirely on lies about some search for a "cure" even while most of the industry continues to push mammograms that actually cause cancer.

The AIDS industry has a lot in common with the cancer industry, in fact. They're both based on scientific quackery. They both demand the dogmatic worship of a particular set of completely non-scientific "truths" that cannot be challenged, and they both focus on generating pharmaceutical profits at the expense of human health.

Also, both industries depend entirely upon the continuation of the disease they claim to treat. Where would Big Pharma be without cancer, AIDS and vaccines? Profits would fall sharply. So diagnosing as many people as possible with AIDS (and cancer) is an important strategy for boosting Big Pharma's annual revenues.

After reading books on AIDS by Dr. Gary Null and others, I'm convinced that the official mythology about AIDS is a cruel hoax perpetrated by the drug companies. That doesn't mean there aren't people suffering from very real immune suppression disorders, but I believe it is far too simplistic to explain the root causes as being solely due to HIV. The entire HIV explanation is just a clever way to shift control over AIDS patients into the hands of drug companies where highly toxic chemicals are sold at ridiculous profits to people who are rarely helped by them.

The collection of immune suppression symptoms typically labeled "AIDS" could be far more effectively treated with naturopathic health strategies, including aggressive detoxification strategies, the removal of heavy metals, the avoidance of environmental synthetic chemicals (in foods, drugs, personal care products, homes and offices) and the addition of powerful immune-boosting herbs, foods and superfoods.

Essentially, AIDS can be cured in much the same way cancer can be cured: By radically altering food intake and lifestyle decisions to support a vibrant, healthy immune system.

Remember what Dr Luc Montagnier said in the film: "We can be exposed to HIV many times without being ... infected. Our immune system creates [antibodies] within a few weeks, if you have a good immune system."

In other words, AIDS exposure is not a death sentence (as Big Pharma would have you believe). It's like many other viruses: A weakened, suppressed immune system gives it the opportunity to wreak havoc throughout your body, but a strong immune system allows you to overcome AIDS and build up your own immunity in a few weeks.

Essentially, being labeled "HIV-positive" is a tactic being used around the world to scare people into buying more high-profit AIDS drugs. But HIV-positive isn't a death sentence, either. With the right immune-supporting solutions in place, even people who carry the HIV virus can live out a full life without any symptoms of AIDS.

What's fantastic about House of Numbers is that it has the courage to challenge the status quo with much-needed critical thinking about HIV and AIDS. As such, House of Numbers is a daring yet brilliant foray into the realms of contradictory medicine where myth trumps science... and profits win out against human compassion. For such a powerful film to have been created by such a young filmmaker is remarkable in itself; and for any film to so courageously challenge the broken mythology of the AIDS industry is an accomplishment for which any filmmaker -- at any age -- should be widely recognized.

House of Numbers will rock the AIDS establishment and cause a whole new generation of thinkers to start critically questioning HIV / AIDS mythology (and the for-profit corporations that push it).

The AIDS myth - what the experts say

To provide more information on this topic, we've pulled together a collection of statements about HIV and AIDS from our library of top health books. We're including a few quotes here, and you can read the full collection (7 pages of quotes) at: http://www.naturalnews.com/027354_A...

The renaming of old diseases as AIDS further supports the hypothesis that the AIDS syndrome is never found in anyone without presence of HIV. By definition, there is no AIDS without HIV, regardless how many non-HIV people may die from the very same symptoms. Accordingly, anything that even remotely resembles immune deficiency plus HIV now counts as an AIDS disease, despite the fact that AIDS patients with Kaposi's sarcoma have been reported to have normal immune systems. It has been argued that wherever there is HIV, AIDS will be the consequence. However, this argument is heavily flawed.
- Timeless Secrets of Health & Rejuvenation: Unleash The Natural Healing Power That Lies Dormant Within You by Andreas Moritz


He sees AIDS as a sort of catch-all term that "spuriously links 29 (at last count) old and extremely heterogeneous AIDS indicator diseases together with a presumption of HIV infection." Those who believe in AIDS as a new syndrome, he says, would have a case if, indeed, it were "a serious disease of acquired immune deficiency without preexisting or induced immune deficiency." The problem is that "in all verifiable cases, demonstrable immune-suppressive disease and/or treatment have always preceded" the onset of AIDS.

In fact, he showed that HIV alone could not cause AIDS. Increasing evidence indicates that AIDS may be a toxicity syndrome or metabolic disorder that is caused by immunity risk factors, including heroin, sex-enhancement drugs, antibiotics, commonly prescribed AIDS drugs, rectal intercourse, starvation, malnutrition, and dehydration. Dozens of prominent scientists working at the forefront of AIDS research now openly question the virus hypothesis of AIDS.

Another report also noted low serum zinc levels in those with AIDS but not other stages of HIV (human immunodeficiency virus) infection. A child with AIDS was found to have all the signs and symptoms of a zinc-deficiency disorder. It is still unclear why these AIDS patients have low serum zinc levels. What is clear is that this aspect of the AIDS problem should be vigorously pursued. These exciting findings justify further clinical trials to determine the effects of supplementary zinc on the immune system and in the treatment of immune disorders such as AIDS.

Kelly Osbourne's 'Save the Seals' Ad

Kelly Osbourne became a celebrity in her own right after the enormous success of MTV's reality show The Osbournes. Now, the singer, known for her spitfire personality and cutting-edge style, is using her voice and her famous face to speak out against Canada's annual seal massacre by posing for PETA's "Save the Seals" ad series.

Kelly and her famous family, headed by her parents Ozzy and Sharon, have always had a house full of animals they adore, so it's only fitting that she would speak out against bashing baby seals' skulls for their fur. During her photo shoot, Kelly told us, "I decided to do the baby seal ad for PETA mainly because I feel I have a responsibility to let people know that fur is not for wearing—we're not cavemen anymore. The saddest thing for me is just knowing baby seals, some of which have not even had their first meal, are going to be killed, and most of them are probably still alive when they're skinning them."

Kelly joins an ever-growing list of people worldwide who are outraged that the Canadian government is still allowing this bloody massacre to continue.

Hemp for America! Farmers plant hemp seeds on DEA's front lawn




To communicate this point, a small group of true American heroes recently marched to the DEA headquarters in Washington D.C. and planted hemp seeds on the front lawn. As cameras rolled, they were arrested for trespassing, but the point had already been made: Industrial hemp is good for America. It's good for farmers, it's good for the economy and it's good for the environment (because hemp needs no pesticides and is a renewable crop that grows well even in poor soils).


Shortly before they all were happily handcuffed Tuesday, the farmers took one look at what the activists had brought to dig with, and just shook their heads.



The symbolic shovels were shiny, chrome-plated affairs, the kind for turning the earth in a Washington photo op, stamped with slogans: "Reefer Madness Will Be Buried." When the shovel blades were experimentally pressed into the mulch outside the group's hotel, they bent like toys.

"You'll have a real hard time getting through the grass," observed Wayne Hauge, 51, a North Dakota farmer whose previous interactions with police amount to a ticket for driving an overloaded truck of lentils. "Not exactly the divot I was thinking of."




But never mind.




Time to leave for the demonstration, the protest, the blow against the empire of DEA regulations.

They piled into a 1985 Mercedes-Benz painted the color of a Granny Smith apple. Its diesel engine had been converted to run on waste cooking oil supplied for free by a restaurant in Columbia Heights. For the adventure, Adam Eidinger, communications director for the advocacy group Vote Hemp and owner of the Mercedes, spiked the cooking grease with waste hemp oil. He was wearing pants, shirt, socks and shoes all made from hemp.




The hemp mobile purred over the Potomac River on the road to Arlington.




Farmers and activists say that industrial hemp, as they call it, will not get you high. It has minuscule levels of THC compared with marijuana. But unlike governments in Canada, Europe and China, the DEA will not allow it to be cultivated in the United States, much less on its own front lawn across from the Pentagon City mall. So the expanding industry, estimated at $360 million annually by advocates, is based on imports.




Hauge has been certified to grow hemp by North Dakota. He thinks the crop will help his fourth-generation family farm thrive. He has a federal case on appeal to force the DEA to yield to the state law.




Also in the car was Will Allen, 73, an organic sunflower and canola farmer from East Thetford, Vt. He has been arrested for protesting the Iraq war, he said. He wants to add organic hemp in rotation with his other crops.

The other passenger, tall and lanky in a pinstripe suit with Alcatraz cuff links, was not a farmer. He was David Bronner, 36, president of Dr. Bronner's Magic Soaps in Escondido, Calif.


Dr. Bronner's! That iconically groovy peppermint liquid lather once was practically prescribed for all kids backpacking from Carmel to Katmandu. It was said to be excellent for washing everything from your face to your jeans to your dishes. David is the grandson of the late Emil Bronner, the original soap-meister. The grandfather wasn't really a doctor, but who was going argue with a guy who loaded his soap bottle labels with tiny script imparting heavy philosophical musings about
the "All-One"?



Bronner's ponytailed presence on this mission was like the totemic blessing of a previous counterculture upon a new counterculture. Whereas the earlier counterculture was associated mostly with the kind of cannabis that you smoke, the new one has taken up the cause of the kind of cannabis that can go into food, textiles, particle board, automobile panels, biofuel. It's a throwback to the old days, when George Washington grew hemp and the USS Constitution was outfitted with 60 tons of hempen rigging.


And soap?



Hemp, it turns out, has to do with so, so much.


"It gave the lather an additional smoothness," said Bronner, who put hemp oil in the recipe 10 years ago.


The DEA referred questions about hemp and the protest to the Justice Department, and Justice referred a reporter to its brief in Hauge's case. The government says it is simply enforcing federal drug laws, which do not distinguish among types of the species cannabis sativa. Hauge and another plaintiff lost at the lower federal court level; a ruling on the appeal is pending.

Meanwhile, a handful of state legislatures has approved industrial hemp farming -- but awaits DEA action -- and the National Association of State Departments of Agriculture has endorsed it.

There was a final huddle on the sidewalk near the DEA building. Besides the six with shovels who planned to be arrested, 15 other supporters came with signs and cameras. They passed around the number of a lawyer to call from jail. Hauge started writing it on a card.

No, said an experienced activist dressed in black. "Write it on your skin."




They chose a patch of lush grass outside the entrance to the DEA Museum in Pentagon City. Sure enough, the shiny shovels bent like toys. The protesters bent them back into shape. The farmers showed the others how to dig small trenches. "One to 1 1/2 inches in moderately moist soil," Hauge had advised earlier.

The seeds were packets of hemp crunch -- toasted hemp seeds imported from Canada, a nutritious snack. Thousands went into the ground.



Private security guards and DEA employees gathered around the gardeners, puzzled.


"Do you have a permit?" asked security contractor David Smith.

"That's what we want is a permit from the DEA," said Bronner.

Smith chuckled at their bendy shovels. "Keep digging, fellas," he said, not unkindly. "You'll be going to jail in a minute."

A DEA guy who wouldn't give his name got on his cellphone to a colleague: "They are digging up the grass and planting hemp seeds."




Arlington police officers gave two warnings and moved in. Hauge walked calmly in handcuffs to a squad car escorted by an officer who was sucking on a lollipop. All six were charged with trespassing and have hearings this week. Then Hauge has 400 acres of chickpeas to harvest back in North Dakota.




Inside the DEA Museum was a display of hemp products that could have come straight from the Hemp Pavilion at the Green Festival last weekend in the Washington Convention Center.

"In the 1600s hemp landed in the Americas where it was used to make rope, clothing, paper," the uncritical DEA exhibit said. "Today hemp fibers are used in clothing and jewelry."




The protesters couldn't have said it better.




The six useless shovels were piled in a carton. Would they go on display? "I don't think so," said a DEA officer. "Evidence." He took pictures of the seeds scattered in the grass.

As for the garden -- no hemp will grow there. The toasting process to render the seeds tasty before importation also makes them inert, as required by law. Nobody was about to risk heavy drug-smuggling charges. The symbol was the thing.
