If Applegate Farms sells out to yet another pro-GMO, factory farming corporation, it will be yet another step back for the food movement.  Those who believe in the ethical treatment of the earth and the animals on it must stick together to support our beliefs and not trade them in for dollar signs.  Applegate Farms has a huge, devoted following which will be lost if this sale goes through.  Please reconsider what you are doing.  We have been with you from the beginning, now stay with us as an independent company!
