Kool Parsley

If you shop at IGA supermarkets in south-east Queensland, you may notice they sell parsley packaged in a bag with the label 'Kool Parsley'.

Buying this parsley funds the Magnificat Meal Movement!

The MMM (via a wholly-owned company) owns a parsley farm in the Lockyer Valley. It's members work on the farm for free to pick and pack the parsley for sale to distributors.

It's all done through a private company known as LVH Pty Ltd. 'LVH' stands for Lockyer Valley Hydro Gardens. The directors and primary shareholders of the company are senior members of the MMM.

Any money made by the company is pure profit as anyone knows the largest cost to a business is salaries and wages. In this case, there are no salaries as cult members voluntarily work for free on the farm.

Further proof: go to the http://www.helidon.org/ website. See the 4th pic from the left? Yep, it's a bloke with a pallet of fresh parsley from the MMM farm.
