The Power of Localism: Progressive San Miguel

Wednesday, July 13, 2016 - 11:00am
A panel with Yolanda Millan, Miguel Lopez & Dylan Terrell

San Miguel is fortunate to have a number of progressive groups whose missions are focused on social and economic justice as well as environmental and food supply issues. On Wednesday, July 13th, we featured a panel with representatives from some of San Miguel's leading progressive organizations. Speakers included one of the main organizers of TOSMA, the very popular Saturday Farmer's market. In addition, there was spokespeople from an important local water quality group, Caminos de Agua and Tiangus Multitrueque, an organization linking producers in a lateral work exchange, a new form of equitable economic trade.
