Good for us! Florida's Ag-gag bill fails


Here's a good-news-update on the Take a Farm Picture -- Go to Jail post.  The bill that would have made it illegal to take pictures of agricultural facilities in Florida did not pass.  Minnesota and Iowa still have bills on the table though, and Monsanto is pushing hard for passage in Iowa. 
Read a bit about this development here.

When Slow Food USA called on farm-lovers to become farmarzzi and take pictures of local farms in response to these bills, we went straight to Girl Farm with one of our favorite families and took these shots.  We didn't even get frisked!
