If you missed the showing of

Strong Roots, Fragile Farms

by "Odyssey Networks Presents" on Sunday, December 13, 2009, at 7:00 A.M. ET/PT on the Hallmark Channel, you can still see it!

Produced by United Church of Christ (UCC) and hosted by legendary musician Willie Nelson, this documentary exposes the threat posed by the globalization of agriculture, not only to America's farm families, but to people worldwide who grow our food and work the land.

Thought for the Day

"It isn't enough to talk about peace,

one must believe it.

And it isn't enough to believe it,

one must work for it."

Eleanor Roosevelt
