Folks, A fine organization, the Michigan Farmers' Union needs you
now--before the close of 2005. You have 24 hours to get a free membership. The
Michigan Farmers' Union is the voice of reason to protect the family farmer
--not industrial-sized agribusiness and CAFOs. (in my opinion)
Below is an invitation from Marilynn Momber, President of MI Farmers'
Union, to become an honorary member for a year--FREE.
PS Marilyn is a member of the MI Catholic Rural Life Conference also.
Michigan Farmers Union received it's charter
from the National Farmers Union in 1932 during the depression era in
hopes of strengthening the family farm system to insure it's survival and
prosperity. The policies set forth then reflect the same philosophy as it does
in 2005. Our policies today are designed to reaffirm the family farm structure
as the primary agricultural system, to assure rural and urban stability,
national prosperity, the preservation of human and natural resources, and the
dignity of the individual and family. We invite anyone that eats food to
join with us and join Michigan Farmers Union.
We have a great opportunity to increase our active membership through a
National Farmers Union grant. Anyone who would like a 1-year
honorary(non-voting; non insurance) membership to the Michigan Farmers Union
should submit their name, address, city, state, zip and county to:
Cowsmonaut@aol.com ASAP
to ensure a free membership which includes monthly newsletters from National
and Michigan Farmers Union. This is a great opportunity to see what our
nonprofit organization is all about. We really welcome our urban
"cousins" to join us as our guest for the 2006 year and learn about
the issues behind the foods we eat.
All names and information that is submitted to us remain within MFU/NFU
offices and never are sold or traded. Please pass this information on to
any of your friends.
