Jan 6-7
London, UK: Back to the Future - Renewed Health and Rural
Prosperity through Traditional Diets by Sally Fallon at the The
UK Soil Association annual conference.Contact: www.soilassociation.org
January 7, 6:00pm
San Francisco, CA: Come join us at Layne's house for our next
potluck and hear all about...Overcoming the Five Horsemen of the Apocalypse
with the NT Diet : Time, Expense, Money, Availability, and Community...a-la
Christapher Cogswell of Radiant Life!
"From a certain anthropological perspective, we in the NT/WAPF
community are trying to reverse-engineer a native diet in a sort-of
backward way. In order to be successful, we must overcome a host of
factors such as finding the time to shop for, prepare, and eat our native
foods, challenged with locating and affording the higher costs of these
foods. Until now, this method has been the best most of us could do.
I believe in order to evolve our activism, we must address the imbalances
of modern life in the broadest way possible by focusing on creating
systemic living solutions that support the realization of our potential,
optimal health, and regeneration of our ecosystems. This shift is already
beginning to happen, and I would like to share the latest encouraging
news!" says this month's fancy featured potluck speaker.

Medicine, his understanding of astrology and Eastern spirituality, and
his ongoing quest for complementary health technologies and therapies,
James is always an engaging and informative speaker. "The essence
of our bodies is water and salt. For centuries ocean water was used
for healing. Why are we not using it now? Is salt good for us? How can
water be healing? These two substances are some of the most powerful
parts of our diet because of the information they carry. For those of
you who saw "What the Bleep", you understand (as Dr. Emoto
pointed out) that water carries messages. It is these messages that
helps the body to balance out the internal environment. "This lecture
will focus on the the vibrational aspects of salt and water, how it
is "sunlight" in a liquid form, and the essential nature of
both disease and wellness from a causative level."

San Francisco, CA: Sweet Tooth - Cooking Class at the home
of t: Sandrine Hahn, 370 7th Street Loft 5, San Francisco, CA, Phone:
Dara (510) 914-1142.
I've asked Dara Merin to teach this class having tasted several of
her desserts myself. She will teach five different desserts made with
Nourishing Traditional principles that include organic ingredients such
as fruit, nuts, chocolate, and dairy. They will all be lightly sweetened
with ingredients such as honey, maple syrup, molasses, rapadura, and
succunat. Most of the desserts will be made without flour.
These recipes, some of which come from Sally Fallon's Nourishing
Traditions and others from Dara's imagination, are all nutrient
dense and will be made with the highest quality ingredients! You may
enjoy each of the desserts during class or take them home for later.
ABOUT DARA MERIN
Dara grew up in New York City, where her lifelong passion for food
and cooking began. She has been an avid cook both professionally and
for friends and family for over fifteen years. She graduated from the
Culinary Institute of America in New York ten years ago, where she learned
foundational cooking skills, but has since become deeply committed to
organic, and local fare, and expanded her repertoire to include healthy
and traditional foods from an array of cultures. She has a vast knowledge
of local Bay Area farmers and food producers from working at the Ferry
Plaza Farmer's Markets and as "Forager" for Manka's Inverness
Lodge while living in Point Reyes in 2005. Dara's passions, aside from
cooking and playing in the kitchen, are studying nutrition, Western
Herbalism, and local and native plants. She sees food as a means for
healing the body and considers food as a tool to bring together community
and foster joyfulness. She currently cooks regular Shabbat dinners for
the Chochmat Halev community in Berkeley, a tradition which has become
a wonderful success.

Greenwood. Topic: Healthy lunches to go – for kids and adults.
A balanced, tasty lunch sets you up for a productive afternoon at work
or school. An energy bar washed down with a mochaccino, or a large soda
and a bag of pretzels is a guarantee of a poor attention span and a
late-afternoon slump. It's nearly as easy to put together a good lunch
as it is to buy a bad one, and you'll be rewarded with increased energy
and a lot better mood!
Real Cooking will show you what goes into a good lunch, and give you
a lunchbox-full of ideas that you can easily incorporate into your own
busy schedule. Whether you make lunch for yourself, for your children,
or both, we'll help you think outside the bag! For more information,

Bodega, CA: Bodega Goat Ranch Tour and Potluck at the Reinecks
Bodega Ranch, 1379 Tanner Creek Road. One of the most important principles
of the Weston A. Price Foundation is to know where your food comes from
and who was involved in producing it. Our San Francisco chapter is lucky
enough to live in close proximity to where much of our food is grown
and raised. At the end of his month we begin with one, of what we hope
to be many, farm tours this year. Bodega Goat Ranch (http://www.bodegagoatcheese.com)
has been kind enough to offer our group a personal tour of their ranch.
The owner, Patty, was thrilled to hear of our organization and is excited
to share their knowledge and information. The ranch produces various
types of goat cheese as well as the very popular Saint Benoit yogurt
(http://www.stbenoit.com). For
those of you who have not had the pleasure of tasting this superb yogurt,
you will not be disappointed. Cost of tour is $10.00 per person and
includes a 2 hour tour along with cheese and yogurt tastings. For more
information, contact Mark & April Meyerson (707)-876-3483.

May 8, 7pm
Santa Monica, CA: Victoria Bloch presents A Big Fat Talk
at the upstairs community room at Wild Oats, 5th & Wilshire. Fat
seems to be the continuing hot topic of our day and age. Experts argue
about good fats and bad fats. The media tells us (finally) that trans
fats are evil, but hastens to remind us that saturated fats are still
really bad. Monounsaturated fats (olive and canola oils) are still media
darlings, but ads still tell us to buy margarines made from polyunsaturated
oils. And then there's the Weston A. Price Foundation, staunchly maintaining
the value of naturally saturated fats like butter and the fat from grass-fed
animals! Join chapter leader Victoria Bloch for a lively, informal discussion
about fat. What the heck is it, anyway? Why are there such divergent
opinions about it? And why is butter really better? Questions encouraged!

July 27th, 7:00pm
Allentown, PA: Jerry Brunetti speaking on: Grass-Based or Grain-Based:
Why It Matters. Grass is the Forgiveness of Nature – "All
Flesh is Grass."
Grasslands: the future health of our communities, personal health
and humanity depend on them. Global warming, cancer, diabetes, obesity,
peak oil and environmental degradation are now commonplace themes of
discussion not only in the alternative press, but in mainstream media.
Just how related are they to one another? What is the common thread
that is unraveling? As G.K. Chesterton said, "It isn't that they
can't see the solution. It is that they can't see the problem."
The conversion of our precious grasslands into cereal production has
created an onslaught of biological destruction that can be readily connected
to an avalanche of health problems in our children as well as a dead
zone in the Gulf of Mexico the size of New Jersey. The past has spoken
of the collapse of many civilizations, but never have we faced such
strains upon the biosphere globally as we do currently. "Grass
is the forgiveness of nature" and in our need to sustainably feed
ourselves, we must embrace the Biblical axiom that "All Flesh is
Grass".
Held at Lehigh County Senior Center, 1633 Elm Street, Allentown, PA.
Local producers may bring grass fed / organic / biodynamic products
for sampling or sale - doors open at 6:30pm - Books and videos will
be available. Free admission (donations welcome). On site parking. For

Santa Monica, CA: Cooking with Julia (DVD presentation) in
the upstairs community room at Wild Oats, 5th & Wilshire.
When it comes down to it, we put what we learn about nutrition from
the Weston Price Foundation into practice every day when we sit down
to eat. And there's always something new to learn about how to get great
food on your plate – so why not learn from one of the masters:
Julia Child? Julia always knew that butter was the best. Julia always
said that the only time to eat "health food" was while you
were waiting for the steak to cook. And Julia always made it easy and
a lot of fun to cook with all the foods we advocate: not just butter,
but cream, broth, fish, and vegetables, too! Join us for an evening
with Julia. We'll choose (as a group) the episodes we want to see, and
we'll walk away inspired to take some of her masterful techniques home
with us to use in our own kitchens!

Los Angeles, CA: DVD Presentation & popcorn: Prescription
to Disaster. OK, so we all know Gary Null, Ph.D., is a very strong
proponent of a vegan diet. However, he has researched a wide range of
health issues for a long time, and sometimes our paths DO converge.
This is one of them!
Null's documentary DVD, Prescription to Disaster explores the mutually
beneficial relationships between big Pharma, the FDA, lobbyists, lawmakers,
medical schools and researchers. It covers (or rather, uncovers) why
drugs are so readily prescribed; the role insurance companies and HMOs
play in promoting compliance with drug-based therapies, why natural
therapies are perceived as threats, and the problem of rising health
care costs.
Arm yourself with information.
Popcorn with real butter and coconut oil will be on hand to enhance
your movie-viewing experience!
