ADD A SAN DIEGO SLANT


This is the Official Press Release from The National Heirloom Expo, September 11,12,13, 2014


For Immediate Release: National Heirloom Exposition—September 9, 10, 11

The Heirloom Event of the Year is coming to Santa Rosa, California, in early September and an San Diego Pure Food enthusiasts are encouraged to attend. Leslie Goldman, Your Enchanted Gardener, travels from San Diego to participate, as well others active in the local community.

Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company, the Petaluma Seed Bank, and other sponsors are excited about the 4th annual National Heirloom Exposition. The event has gained incredible interest among home growers, farmers, school groups and the general public over the past 4 years, that it is now a significant player in the world of heirlooms.

Located at the Sonoma County Fairgrounds in Santa Rosa, California, on September 9, 10, and 11, (Tuesday-Thursday) this event is expected to be vastly larger than any of the three previous Expos. With emphasis on the increased awareness of Label GMO campaigns across the country, there will be a particularly large presence of pure food advocates, truth in labeling activists, and many others interested in promoting healthy living.

This event is different from most other events in that it provides ample opportunity for attendee participation. In addition to experiencing our amazing line up of educational speakers, attendees may involve themselves with group discussions, food tastings, volunteer opportunities, and much more

Over the course of three days, more than 100 speakers will give a variety of informative and educational presentations on subjects as diverse as seed saving, genetically modified organisms, home gardening, food politics and policy, farming, marketing local foods, and more. The outstanding line up includes Dr. Joseph Mercola, a New York times bestselling author and health advocate; Vani Hari, a health and food activist who teaches people how to make good food purchasing decisions, how to live an organic lifestyle, and how to travel healthfully around the world; Jeffery Smith, one of the leading experts on the subject of GMOs and the dangers they pose to human health and environment; Percy Schmeiser, a Canadian farmer who was sued by Monsanto after the chemical company's Roundup Ready canola contaminated his canola crop; Andrew Kimbrell, founder and executive director of the Center for food Safety, and many more.

The National Heirloom Exposition is a not-for-profit event with all proceeds above expenses being donated to school gardens and other educational projects. In fact, educating youth about good food is so important that admission is free to anyone 17 years old and younger. In addition, Wednesday, September 10, will be Kids' Day, filled with presentations, contests, and activities specifically for school age children.

The American Livestock Breeds Conservancy, American Poultry Association, and other heritage animal organizations will conduct a livestock show with prizes. All kinds of gardening and food related exhibits will be judged for prizes. The event will once again feature the giant pumpkin contest, which last year drew an entry that weighed over 1400 pounds!

This National Heirloom Exposition will include the world's best trade show for the heirloom seed and food industry. Attendees can celebrate historic agriculture, horticulture, and food traditions with more than 250 leading companies of sustainable, ecological, and healthful goods and services.

Music lovers will not want to miss the Musical Extravaganza that will feature Sourdough Slim, Fly by Night, Petaluma Pete, and many others. Individual performers and groups will provide bluegrass, western, old songs with a new feel, traditional swing, instrumentals, and much more.

Many chefs from across the country will host food demonstrations and tastings, as well as a variety of lectures on food. The National Heirloom Expo is shaping up to be one of the most important “good food” events of the century with three days of great culinary learning and experiences. A vast array of fruits and vegetables will be available for sampling each day. In addition, many local food vendors will provide the opportunity to enjoy the international flavors of California as they feature meals and snacks prepared by quality chefs and from mostly local and organic ingredients.

Admission price is $10 each day or all 3 days for $25 for adults. Kids 17 and under are free! Exhibit hours are 11 am to 8 pm each day. Tickets may be purchased online at theheirloomexpo.com or may also be purchased at the gate.
