Joe Rodriguez Jr, AKA Joe the Farmer is a symbol for the local organic farming farmer
that never, never gives up. Joe is concerned about 30% water usage cutback allowances.
15 of his 40 acres have been left fallow to prevent severe fines. Joe the Farmer and
all his San Diego Farmers are destined to have a Comeback. That Comeback depends
on you. Bring a Drum! Come Rally 'Round the Beet 6:15 PM, 4/20/08 WorldBeat Cultural
Center, 2100 Park Blvd., Balboa Park.

I am headed in the direction of KPBS.
KPBS stands for Fairness in Reporting.
KPBS stands for getting more than than the
surface drops of a story.
KPBS stands for going deeper into the Crack of things,
the Crack between people, deeper into the Crack
that imagines that because a Delta Smelt Fish is endangered
and we want to save it, that somehow we are not Endangering
Home Land Security in San Diego.
If we keep making it hard for local farmers to
wake up and say Happiness is Organic each day,
we will have no local organic farmers.
If we keep asking for more and more organic food,
but at the same time imagine we can get our supplies
from other countries, we are heading for more energy
dependence, not energy independence.
It is not enough to save the Delta Smelt
an endangered fish that lives in the neighborhood of the California Capital
and our Legislators.
I do not know how real this water shortage is.
I am a gardener.
If I had the resources and the support to collect all the rain water
that went down the gutter in front of our house this Winter,
I would have enough water to water every plant on this 1/3 acre
three times fold.
Farmers are not the ones who have time to sit down with the
Powers that Be and find out what to do about this Water Shortage.
Farmers are not Beaurocrats.
They do not have all the time in the world to be doing all
the paper work that it takes to be growing food in San Diego County.
Yes, they play by the rules.
They play by the Laws, and they are here to Uphold
Laws that most of us break.
Dr. Bernard Jensen (1908-2001) is in his Centennial Celebration
year this 2008. People are coming from all over the world
June 6,7,8 to the Town and Country Convention Center
to drink from the waters of his wisdom and honor what this man knew.
Dr. Jensen knew the Law.
He Lived by the Law.
He knew more Laws for Living that most of us have ever
had a chance to hear.
We do not hear the Laws he knew on popular TV,
we hear, see, and smell them in the garden.
Dr. Jensen was 92 when he left this plane.
I would not use the words die or passaway
in reference to Dr. Bernard Jensen.
What he stood for were Laws,
Laws of Nature that do not pass away.
Dr. Bernard Jensen understood water.
He understood the need of those he saw in his office for good water.
He knew the power of locally grown vegetables
to be medicine. He knew the kind of water
that is biochemically alive and comes up through
locally grown organic vegetables made into juices,
or that are transformed by sprouts and greens.
Dr. Bernard Jensen was in the same school of thought as the
Father of Modern Medicine Hippocrates.
Both Hippocrates and Jensen knew the Law.
They knew their Vegetables.
They knew their Beets.
They both taught,
Get to know your Beet
before you have to go see your Doctor.
That is a Law,
a little known Law.
IF we do not Keep the Beet,
Keep up an active relationship with things that grow,
develop a gardener more than a mechanic outlook on life,
we will be spending our time watching Dancing with the Stars
when we could be out on the porch smelling the fragrance of
now gone Orange Blossoms.
We are intended by birth to be gardeners.
We are intended by birth to be Stars--
Orbs in Orbit--as Jensen would say.
That is why we are doing
Rally 'Round the Beet
6:15 PM, Sunday, April 20
at the WorldBeat Cultural Center
here in San Diego. This is just the first
Drum beat. This beet will be heard.
The event follows Carolyn Chase's San Diego Earth Fair,
in its 19th year, the largest Earth Day event in our the USA>
It follows Makeda Dream Cheatoms Multi-cultural Earth Day
at the nearby Center where for years Makeda has honored the beat
of life and the beet.
It follows the appearance of the Conscious Goods Alliance Bus
in the Pan American Plaza area--sort of near the Gymnasium
in Balboa Park.
100 Drums will be there at 6:15 PM. 4/20/08
if you put it on your calendar now to be there.
I am not into fighting for water.
I am into informing. I am into creating a Moment of Awakening.
A whole lot of us need to start putting our Lives together now
as Gardeners. One Person+Growing a Beet in one Pot.
Keep the Beet. Eat the Beet greens. Do what a plant does
to grow and you will develop an awakening to support your
local organic farmer.
You are a Gardener! One Pot per person, that is all I am asking!
A new outlook on Life is coming.
Please, enter Plant Parenthood.
We need to realize that we can be traveling around this Country
from Whole Food Market to Whole Food Market with used Vegetable
oil propelling our gas tank. That is how that Conscious Goods
Alliance Veggie Powered Bus is rolling along!
We can find solutions to keeping the Delta Smelt off the
Endangered List without putting Local Organic Farmers and their
Conventional Kin on the Endangered Species List.
We simply have to find new solutions.
It's the Law.
