Last night, Hawaiʻi CFS and the #ProtectOurKeiki coalition hosted Dewayne Johnson on Maui. What an honor! Johnson on Monsantoʻs Roundup: "I think people are starting to see that thereʻs something going on with this product. I'm living proof of that. I'm the weed that didn't die."

As CFS has been advocating for 20+ yrs, choosing #organic foods isn’t a lifestyle, but a lifesaver. The facts are clearly on our side. A new @foe_us study found a dramatic reduction of #pesticide residue among participants who ate organic >> cfs.center/organicblog #organicforall
