Watties going away? Not surprised, it's #profitfirst as it is Heinz and Black Rock.

At a time when local food is sooooo important,
maybe employees and farmers can create a #cooperative, a #socialenterprise, maybe helped by local or central government or people, us, so that we can continue eating.

Tonight online WeAll meeting to actually start and create an economy that works for people and the planet and stops putting #MoreMoney first. I am curious and look forward to it.
