It's rare to find people eating this well, even though it is healthier for both people and the planet (see below / read the article). That's wonderful when they do, BUT producers and processors MUST do their part. We will NEVER have a sustainable diet without a *Sustainable Food Supply*.

Read the fine print, don't end the government shutdown until the paperwork is fair to the majority of the USA, including the poorer wealth ranges.
Hidden in the U.S. Senate bill to end the government shutdown is a provision that would ban hemp-derived products like THCA, delta-8, HHC, THCV and CBD nationwide.

In WI, this means 100s of small businesses, 1000s of jobs, and millions of dollars of economic activity are at risk of disappearing.
