Constitutional Amendments - Proposes adding a provision establishing the right to food that includes the right to save and exchange seeds and the right to grow, raise, harvest, produce, and acquire and consume the food of their own choosing for their own nourishment, sustenance, bodily health, and well-being. -

SJR 610 proposes adding a constitutional amendment to Tennessee's state constitution that would establish a fundamental right for all residents to save and exchange seeds, grow and harvest their own food, and choose what to eat for personal nourishment, as long as they do not trespass, steal, or harm property or resources. The amendment would specifically protect growing food on residential, agricultural, or mixed-use land without violating local zoning laws, provided individuals respect property rights. However, the state would retain authority to regulate or prohibit the cultivation of plants that produce controlled substances. This resolution is a step toward amending the constitution, requiring further legislative approval and voter ratification.
