My name is Becky Priddy and I will be working with Mary (Mexscha@main.nc.us) and Karen, (Bodyharmonyc@bellsouth.net) in organizing a Weston Price meeting on June 15th at Earth Fare. I have reserved their meeting room for 6:30pm.

Please plan to come.

You may wonder what we will be doing as a chapter?
This is a quote from the Weston Price Foundation:

" Local chapters help you find locally-grown organic and biodynamic vegetables, fruits and grains; and milk products, butter, eggs, chicken and meat from pasture-fed animals. They also represent the Weston A Price Foundation at local fairs and conferences and may host cooking classes, potluck dinners and other activities to help you learn to integrate properly prepared whole foods into your lifestyle. Local chapters may be able to put you in touch with health practitioners who share our philosophy and goals."

Basic Requirements

  1. Provide information on sources of organic foods, milk products from pasture-fed livestock (preferably raw), pasture-fed eggs and livestock and properly produced whole foods in your area.
  2. Provide a contact phone number to be listed on the website and in our quarterly magazine.
  3. Provide Weston A. Price Foundation materials to inquirers, and make available as appropriate in local health food stores, libraries and service organizations and to health care practitioners.
  4. Provide a yearly report of your local chapter activities.

Optional Activities

  1. Maintain a list of local health care practitioners who support the Foundation's teachings regarding diet and health
  2. Represent the Foundation at local conferences and fairs.
  3. Organize social gatherings, such as support groups and pot luck dinners, to present the Weston A. Price Foundation philosophy and materials.
  4. Present seminars, workshops and/or cooking classes featuring speakers from the Weston A. Price Foundation, or local speakers who support the Foundation's goals and philosophy.
  5. Represent the Weston A. Price Foundation philosophy and goals to local media governments and lawmakers.
  6. Lobby for the elimination of laws that restrict access to locally produced and processed food (such as pasteurization laws) or that limit health freedoms in any way.
  7. Publish a simple newsletter containing information and announcements for local chapter members
  8. Work with schools to provide curriculum materials and training for classes in human development and home economics.
  9. Help the Foundation find outlets for the sale of its quarterly magazine.

So, if you are interested in learning more and be part of Weston Price Foundation, please attend and ask others to come as well.
