Liberty City (USA) liberated from genetically modified food

Whether it’s animal, vegetable or mineral, any genetically altered versions of the originals are not welcome in Liberty. About 95 residents gathered at the Walker School to act on a 63-article warrant during the annual town meeting Saturday, March 31. Triggering a good deal of discussion was an article asking the town to adopt ”a nonbinding resolution to voluntarily protect its agricultural and forest economies, environment and private property by declaring Liberty an area free of genetically engineered agriculture.”
