Say Good-bye to your local Farmer’s Market

I agree completely that it seems that this bill’s initial blog reaction was strongly in the camp of overreaction, however, I do still have my concerns that the eventual effect will be to continue to make it more difficult for small farmers. I am far more concerned about mandatory animal tagging than I am about HR 875 at this point.Report
