Thrifty Foods have let us know that they will not knowingly sell any GMO produce item, and have had this policy in place for a number of years. They have advised growers of this position
If it is approved Thrifty Foods will NOT stock the apple or any apple that they find is a GMO variety.
Thank you Thrifty’s, and for more on our campaign to stop the GE apple, go to:
GE Free BC 
I am told they stock Hawaiiain Papaya, which is apparently rejected by Japan because it is GMO. http://modernfarmer.com/2013/12/battleground-hawaii-tiny-island-state-leading-battle-gmos/
YEAH!!! Thank you for your good work!

“Together we can build a world in which food is produced, distributed and consumed in ways that respect Earth and its ecosystems. We can honour food as a sacred gift from God and part of the global commons. And we can effect change for food justice that can have a life-sustaining impact on our families, communities, and Earth itself.”
