Toronto GMO-Free Festival & Farmer's Market May 24th

Christie Pits Park will be the site of a GMO-Free Festival & Farmer's Market Saturday, May 24th.
Here's the scoop:

"Be a part of this global day of action to raise awareness of the health and environmental risks associated with GMOs while celebrating Ontario’s rapidly growing non-GMO and organic food movement! From 12-6pm on May 24th, 2014, thousands of citizens will gather at Christie Pits Park (see map) to learn and educate themselves about GMOs and explore alternatives to the industrial food system. This will be Toronto’s first GMO-free festival, and will feature great high-profile speakers, entertaining musicians and performers, info tables on crucial health and environmental issues, and a wide variety of non-GMO munchies to sample or purchase!"
It doesn't specifically say, but I assume that attendance is free-of-charge. Activities run from noon to 6 pm.

Cheers,
Vanessa
