We watched a very cool little 20 minute video yesterday on TED.com, by a chef called Mark Bittman. (If you haven’t visited TED yet, you’re in for a treat – MASSES of free speeches by incredible people, all usually 3-20 mins long, more or less – great lunchtime viewing if at a ‘puter ;) Thanks to our friend Marie for sending this link...
In this video, Mark speaks very eloquently, interestingly and convincingly on the impact of the overproduction & overconsumption of meat, dairy and junk food, how to lessen your carbon footprint through food choices and the effect cattle farming is having on the world – both in terms of individual health and the health of planet. Something VERY worthwhile passing on to doubting, burger-munching friends and family alike, methinks... ;) See here:

REMINDER: Looks like this is the last week to get hold of a copy of the new Ann Wigmore Home Study Course. There were fewer than 500 copies available and they’re very nearly sold
out. So, if you didn’t invest in a copy yet and you’re waivering on whether to invite Wiggie into your world, now might be the time to take action ;) You can see more about the course HERE.I think I might actually start growing wheatgrass again this summer...I used to grow it in Iceland very successfully – one guy I was living with actually took care of his Hepatitis drinking the good green stuff, plus his hair started to turn from white to black again – pretty impressive ;)...that was all YEARS ago now though...travelling really isn’t very conducive to growing things like wheatgrass...sprouts I can handle on the road, wheatgrass is trickier...hmmmm, well, we’ll see how green my fingers get the next few weeks, along with my inside... ;)

Finally for today, if you’re able to make it to Santa Rosa in California on the weekend of the 6th-8th June, I’d strongly recommend you make your presence felt at the Harmony Festival. This year (which is the 30th anniversary of the festie), the ‘Eco Village’ area is being mana
ged by dear raw goddess herself, Ms. Laura ‘Foxy’ Fox. Yeeeeeeeee-HAH :) The line-up looks FABULOUS :) She has pulled together all kinds of raw food funsters to head up the Eco area - Matt + Janabai Amsden of Rawvolution, Victoria Boutenko, Cherie Soria, Bruce Horowitz, Rainbeau Mars + the owners of Cafe Gratitude will all be presenting.The festie attracts over 25,00 people and there will be a huge range of things on offer, within and beyond the ‘Eco Village’ area – music, talks (including...Danny Glover…;), healing therapies, vendors, workshops, kids’ playland, art and all sorts of marvellous offerings...
Passes for the whole weekend seem to start at $119 and the festie plants a tree for every ticket purchased, in collaboration with Trees for The Future. They are also taking volunteers to help out and they have carpooling set up too...you can see all about it at www.harmonyfestival.com.
ENJOY,
All love,
