One Beet. Many Pulses
are now coming together
to respond to President Barack Obama's
request, "Show me the movement. Make me do it!"
He turned to Michelle in April 2009 and said,
"This is your issue. baby."
Michelle came to San Diego April 15, 2010
because she knew this was the place
and this is our time
to declare to our city, the nation,
and the world:
We are the movement.
Many food groups and key environmental
groups launched our coming together, April 24-25
at the 2010 Cultivating Food Justice Conference.
It was all free. Free breakfast. Free lunch.
Free workshops. A free education to
last a lifetime and make it possible
for all people to have good food.
First Lady Michelle Obama
said about the IRC New Roots Community Farm,
"The world is watching what is going on
on this plot of land. You are truly doing phenomenal work".
April 15, 2010.
On April 22, the official Earth Day,
Jerome Ringo, who helped craft
parts of President Obama's environment election plank,
was the keynote speaker at SDSU earth day.
He was so moved, he declared SDSU the Flagship University

VIDEO OF MICHAEL POLLAN
April 2009,
President Barack Obama’s said
”Show me the movement. Make me do it!”
He was at a dinner with a friend of Michael Pollan,
author of ”Food Rules,” and many other books.
Pollan is also in ”Food Inc. The guest at the
White House, a friend of Michael Pollan,
asked the President for support for the
Sustainability movement. The President
was sympathetic. Lot long after his
election, there was a big truck of organic
food dropped off at the White House,
but he felt that putting energy behind

”Dear Leslie, you are a rare, sensitive being.
Thank you for miswifing my wise blood.
Not many men could do that.
I appreciate your ability to name
and be conscious,
Your witness of me at a sacred passage has strenghtened me.
Much love to you,

The official FDA position is that there is no difference
between conventional, GE, and Organic foods from
a health point of view.
Monsanto Company suggests that those there is no reason
to label GMO foods, and recommends that those who wish
to choose can shop organic.
I am going to experiment with this iphone app from
Shelly Roche that lets you enter a PCU code.
You can then tell if the fruit is organic, or conventional,
or GMO.

Walked the garden today.
Watered some plants.
Clearing some things in my room.
Resetting some Altar Space in my office.
Clearing some things from the floor.
The garden is speaking loud and clear today
through profound scents and sights.
The Garden is asking for you.
I was just out there for a few hours on and off.
I started to feel powerful. I started to internal
the shift of seasons. Just standing in the presence
of a plant can be profoundly hallowing.
We do not need to take in anything, just be
in the garden.

For years I have been saying that
The Traditional Chinese Medical Community
needed to begin growing its own herbal medicines
on American soil. Further, it was the responibilities
of cutting edge schools such as the Pacific College of
Oriental Medicine (PCOM) to have clear directives
inviting their own students to grow some of their own
foods and medicines.
At last year’s Pacific Symposium I made a point of
bringing in Bill Tall and his staff from the local

I spend some time on Friday being introduced
to the writing of Robert Baskin who now works
for the Obama Administration investigating fraud.
This seems to be a area of expertise for this
excellent investigative journalist who has won many
national awards.
When she worked for ABC I-Team, Robert Baskin
effected the bottomline of Whole Foods Market
and the Organic Trade in General when she pointed
out Comtamination of Organic products with lax systems
of quality control coming from China.
These investigations took place in 2008.
