The Natural Product Expo West (NPEW)
is the most Glorious Display of Power
that the Natural Product Industry expresses
in So Cal each year.
The Show fills the whole Anaheim Convention Center,
at least six or more halls.
The show is put out by the very good people
of New Hope Natural Media/Penton.
I love this show.
It is a highlight of the year for
Your Enchanted Gardener.
I first came in with a Press Pass many years
ago through my friendship with Kate Lawrence
who was the President then of this show for
New Hope Natural Media. I would bring her
little tokens of appreciation, knowing she
was the Queen and I her Enchanted Gardener.
I would bring her locally grown foods from
San Diego, grown by my farmers. I would bring
the Show Plant to the Office with Blessing
for a Great, Great Show. Then some of the little
herbs made it back to Boulder, Colo, the home
of New Hope.
Some years, I would leave one of my poems
for Kate. One year she wrote me a note that
the poem brought her to tears. Being a show
director and taking a moment to feel feelings
is a good thing.
I have grown up a lot with this Expo.

One year, I was on crutches.
I had Hip Replacements not long before.
I wanted to go to the Organic Trade Association (OTA)
Reception, a gala feast where the CEO's of our Industry
get together and present a check to help this tremendous
organization that works to uphold organic standards. OTA
plays the political arena well for us.
I was weary and tired that night.
I was leaning up against a table outside the Reception.
I really wanted to go inside, but did not feel comfortable
with the $75.00 tab.
A lovely woman came up to me.
She said hello. I told her
I was waiting for a friend to offer me a ticket.
She became that friend.
It turned out she was the Co-chair for the Reception,
the female head of the yearly fundraising campaign.
years passed.
I no longer go to that Reception on cruthes.
I go with my Olympus 5050.
For a number of years I have been the photographer
for the Reception.
It is a good relationship.
It offers me an opportunity to take photos
of some of the great heart and soul people
of in the Natural Product Industry.

Debbi Boyle, The Fundraising Co-Chair.
One year when I was on crutches, she
offered me a ticket to the Reception.
I have been photographer for the Reception
the last three years.

During my time creation relationship
with NPEW and OTA, I got to know
the Director of Publications for New Hope,
Karen Raterman.
I would bring her a Thyme plant each year.
She said, that the gift of more 'Thyme"
was one of the precious things I could give her.
I became an unofficial Ambassador for New Hope,
seeking out Heart and Soul in the Natural Products
Industry.
I have turned in a number of stories to
The Natural Food Merchandiser, one of the Industry
publications.
You can read one of those stories here:
For the most part, I print stories
about Heart and Soul in the Natural Food Industry
on this Plant Your Dream Blog.
The Natural Food Industry is growing by leaps and bounds.
It is one of the fastest industries growing
in the world that basically is about wanting to improve
the lives of people.
With fast growth, comes a need for education.
I am at the Natural Produce Expo West to be a reminder,
that Heart and Soul belongs as a driving force
behind what we do.
This year, I will be offering the Enchanted Garden
Seal of Good Housekeeping, a Special Award,
to Heart and Soul members of our Industry.
I will be given Job's Tears and a special
Plant Parenthood Adoption Certificate.
Plants are great mentors.
They remind us of the Laws of Nature.
They mind us of the rules that allow
dreams to grow naturally,
organically.
So here is an Offer to you,
dear Curezone community.
I welcome you to join me at the
Natural Product Expo West 2007.
What are your favorite Natural Products?
What are the companies that you support?
What are the packaged foods you use?
Who supplies the organic products you use?
I will be running into some of the faces
behind the products you like.
Expect to see them photos show up here.
The Enchanted Garden is a name for our
Renewed Earth, that grows one Seed and Seed Dream
at a time.
Our renewed earth grows as we consciously
direct energy. How we choose to spend
influences the success of various dreams.
I welcome you to get to know some of the
creators behind some of the products you
love.
Your Enchanted Gardener,
Leslie

Bio Notes:
"A magic day he passed my way and while we spoke
of many things Fools and Kings, this he said to me,
'The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be
loved in return.' " -- "Nature Boy," written by eden
ahbez, recorded by Nat King Cole
in 1947.
"Do you remember, a lifetime ago,
when Nat King Cole had a hit song
called "Nature Boy"? It told about
"a strange, enchanted boy"
who wandered far, very far,
and when he met you,
he taught you many things.
I've met that boy,
or someone very much like him,
and he is now a man known as
"The Enchanted Gardener..."
I may never be the same."
--Paul Froemming,
Montecito Journal,
July 16, '99
