NICE STORY
Four years ago, Jere Gettle, owner of Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company and the Petaluma Seed Bank, founded the Festival. He envisioned an opportunity for foodies and farmers to get to know forgotten food treasures worth saving...in his own terms: "pure foods."
Jere is pushing the pure food refresh button. He's broadening awareness on the potentially harmful effects of GMOs, unorthodox hybridization and industrialized farming practices, that compromise the quality of food put into our bodies. They may affect our health from a lack of nutrient density and chemical poisoning from herbicides, pesticides, and fungicides. To compound the situation, wholesome foods are wiped from existence as inconvenient to industrial machinery for planting, growing and harvesting.
The National Heirloom Exposition showcases the pure food movement with heirloom vegetables, heritage livestock and anti-GMO activism. With more than 125 speakers and 350 natural food vendors and exhibitors combined, the event struck a cord with the 14,000+ visitors, making it the largest event in pure food history.
The Expo thrusts heirloom produce and heritage farm animals front and center onto the stage of our food supply.
