UPDATE
Hi All,
Just a note of thanks and asking for some good thoughts sent my way.
In the middle of this powerful Earth Day week, I am going up to Hamilton High School in L.A. to support Science Teacher, Eva Becker. My niece Eva doing a powerful Medical Fair that is drawing media attention and support from major hospitals.
I will be launching the Growing a Healthier Pizza Project, that I will continue here through supporting the Wild Willow event April 28, and at other opportunities
during our 15 days of Cultivating Food Justice that I see have begin with Diane Moss's Tribute to Cheves April 21.

Yesterday at EarthFair, I got some pointers from Mel Lions, who is the elder esteemed voice behind the incredibly successful Wild Willow Education Center project. Kudus to Mel, Misha, Richard Winkler, and so many who have helped.
Mel is going to get me some of Barry Logan's Sourdough starter when i go to the Wild Willow event April 28 so I can take the next step with actually learning how to make a pizza!!!
David Pearl, who is showing his film Polyculture, is one of our housemates here at the Echanted Garden Intentional Community and is showing his film at Wild Willow. This film is not to be missed.
I do not know anything yet about making a pizza, but I do know how to grow Kamut Khorasan wheat, and a little bit, tomatoes.
I want to give to our community the Label GMOs San Marzana Tomato seeds that I got from Chris Fischer of the Baker Creek Rare Seed Company.
Hope to see 12 of you at the April 29 event I am doing here at the Enchanted Garden, from 5 to 9 pm on Sunday. It would warm my heart see some of my
Cultivating Food Justice friends here. I want to tell the story of this ancient wheat Kamut, and also my plan to help San DIego see Arundo Donax, The Gian Reed, not as an enemy invasive plant, but a hero when we harvest this marvelous crop--as Misha also knows. Right now, Arundo is one of the biggest moneymakers for Monsanto. The landfill calls it trash, and the Fire Prevention Bureau (good people) were recommending Roundup herbicide as the way to handle it. I am aiming to shift this city policy with your help. Please come and hear my plan.
Leslie

"It's Time for GMO and Organic Lovers to Talk!"
In this inspired conversation, intended for the the AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science Annual Conference,Leslie will represent points of view expressed in the 1918 classic "The Science of Eating." Muckraker author Alfred McCann of the New York Globe, and Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, first head of the FDA who inspired the Pure Food Law of 1906 that allowed Junk Food but the law was never applied due to commercial interests.
McCann said, in 1918, "it will be a long time before Congress will successfully grapple with the facts which he now outlines in detail. his belief was that the work that must be done in the schools, "that our American children must be taught the meaning of depraved foods, that theymust learn how foods are processed, bleached, colored, sifted, bolted, denatured, degerminated, demineralized, chemically treated and refined; that they must be taught the relationship between foodless food to sickness and death; that they must be taught the relationship of natural food to health and life." To this we now add, it is time to Grow a Healthier Pizza made of Non GMO and Organic Ingredients that we might together enter the Post GMO Enchanted Garden Era--Leslie Goldman, Your Enchanted Gardener, 2012 Beet Keeper Campaign
Leslie Speaks at the AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science Annual Conference, "The Science of Eating" A look back at the work of the Pure Food Act of 1906, that outlawed Junk Food.
