  2. Just what is 'natural' food?

    The campaign against genetically engineered foods didn't disappear with the defeat of Proposition 37, which would have required the labeling of most foods containing bioengineered ingredients. Instead, it morphed into the <a href="http://gmoinside.org/">GMO Inside</a> campaign, which among other things is behind a Colorado lawsuit that claims <a href="http://www.latimes.com/health/boostershots/la-heb-goldfish-crackers-gmo-lawsuit-20121115%2C0%2C6062620.story">Goldfish crackers</a> shouldn't be labeled as "natural" because they contain genetically engineered soybean oil.

  4. Farmers Markets: Raisins, outside the box

    REEDLEY, Calif. -- Raisins are the neglected icon of California agriculture, perceived as an old-fashioned industrial commodity, devoid of seasonal sizzle. At farmers markets, however, it's well worth searching out special varieties, freshly harvested and processed by small growers.

  9. New beef vendor at Santa Monica farmers market has history on its side

    LOMPOC, Calif. &mdash; A new beef vendor at the Santa Monica farmers market, <a href="http://ranchosanjulian.com/,">Rancho San Julian</a> is very likely the oldest continuously operated family farm in California, dating to 1816, when Jos&eacute; de la Guerra began to raise meat for the presidio at Santa Barbara. In 1837, the governor of Alta California granted him title to the ranch, which has remained in his family for nine generations. It currently extends over 13,000 acres of grasslands and oak forest, roamed by cougars, bears and hawks, and home to 500 Angus cows and their calves. All the cattle are born and raised on the ranch, fed chiefly on its dry-farmed grass, and not given corn, hormones or antibiotics.
