Presentation by the Non-GMO Project

Dean's Natural Food Market invites you to attend an in-store presentation from Courtney Pineau of the Non-GMO Project. (http://nongmoproject.org) This is a GREAT opportunity to learn straight from the source.

GMOs, or Genetically Modified Organisms, are organisms which have been genetically altered by inserting genes of one species into another species (also known as "genetically engineered"), creating combinations meant to be pest and herbicide-resistant, but possibly with health risks to consumers. GMO foods have not been proven to be safe for us to eat and may in fact be linked to many health issues such as food allergies, infertility, autism, digestive problems and others.

The Non-GMO Project is a national non-profit organization and the only organization in North America offering independent verification of testing for products in the US and Canada. Products which have been verified by the Non-GMO Project as being free of GMOs can be identified by their verification logo on the packaging.

This free presentation starts at 2 pm on Sunday, September 23rd and will take place in our Shrewsbury location at 490 Broad St. (Rt. 35 N), Shrewsbury NJ. Register in the store, by phone or at info@deansnaturalfoodmarket.com
