Celebrating A healthier life and planet in 2009

So come join us for our New Year's luncheon

Tues. the 27th
place: Wheeler Farm, barn
Time 11:15 a.m
Bring a fun raw healthy dish from God's garden
to serve 8-10, and a serving utensil and recipe.

We will be featuring Affluenza (Hard to Find PBS Documentary) There is something we can each do to be aware of our world.

Over a decade ago, John Javna wrote a small book entitled "50 Simple Things You Can Do To Save the Earth." He published it himself, and to his surprise, it sold 5 million copies. It gave readers hundreds of ideas, from taking a cloth bag to the store to installing low-flow shower heads. In the new version (Hyperion, $12.95), Javna takes a different approach.

The organic food movement is an example. There's a growing conviction that eating organic is better for our bodies and better for the planet: fewer pesticides and less synthetic fertilizer to pollute rivers and streams. But buying only organic food is expensive and a huge commitment.

Javna suggests starting small. Decide you will spend $25 a week on organic food. If you have small children, you may want to begin with organic milk, and include soft fruit such as strawberries, tomatoes, apples, grapes and peaches, which retain higher levels of pesticide residues. for more information on things you can do check out his suggestion at
