On Feb. 27, an unprecedented alliance of more than 60 Occupy groups  and 30 environmental, food and corporate accountability organizations  will join together for Occupy our Food Supply, a global day of action  resisting the corporate control of food systems.
The call to Occupy our Food Supply, facilitated by Rainforest Action Network,  is being echoed by prominent thought leaders, authors, farmers and  activists including the Indian environmentalist Vandana Shiva, Food Inc.’s Robert Kenner, music legend Willie Nelson, actor Woody Harrelson, and  authors Michael Pollan, Raj Patel, Anna Lappe, Gary Paul Nabhan, and  Marion Nestle, among others.
“Occupy our Food Supply is a day to reclaim our most basic life  support system—our food—from corporate control. It is an unprecedented  day of solidarity to create local, just solutions that steer our society  away from the stranglehold of industrial food giants like Cargill and  Monsanto,” said Ashley Schaeffer, Rainforest Agribusiness campaigner  with Rainforest Action Network (RAN).
