"SHOW ME THE MOVEMENT!"
"MAKE ME DO IT!"
--PRESIDENT OBAMA SAID

He was referring to the Sustainability
movement, including Cultivating Food Justice.

President Obama was at a dinner a number of years back.
He was asked about his support for the Sustainability movement
that includes Cultivating Food Justice. He said "Make me do it!":
he could not take action on fully supporting the movement until the
sustainability movement showed him its strength.
Then he turned to his wife, Michelle Obama and said,
Baby! It's Your Project!"

April 15, 2010, a couple years later,
Michelle Obama Came to the City Heights,
a city that was singled out to receive 10 million dollars
because of improvements it had already shown that
have the California Endowment a sense that their money
would be well spend investing here.

She visited the New Roots IRC Community Garden to launch her
Let's Move!" Project, a national initiative that includes
an support for exercise, nutrition and gardening.

So where are we now? At the
Fourth Annual Cultivating Food Justice Conference,
we get a readout of where one of the nation's top
sustainability cities lies. The Schedule can be viewed
here.

The context, on a national level, and on a local level,
is that we are in a Food Emergency as well as there are
signs of good progress we want to acknowledge
that are Cultivating Food Justice.

The 2011 Cultivating Food Justice Event, April 9-10, 2011,
gives us a look at what one city is saying,
but where are we nationally?

What are some of the issues we face as a nation?
What are we up against?

How do we further create now a sustainability movement
that includes Cultivating Food Justice for all?

Who are the Non Profits on a national level that are
working to end this Food Emergency?

Who are some of the local Groups in San Diego
to watch, that are a barometer of the Shift toward
Cultivating Food Justice?

These are the topics I will touch on in my presentations
at the 2011 Cultivating Food Justice Event.

In a five minute talk at the Speak Out 9 am-10 am, April 9, 2011
as part of a plenary of many voices being heard, I will inspire
further our movement, and guide those who come to
express themselves.

Be sure to attend the Opening Plenary at the Mid City Gym,
located one block west of Fairmount on Landis Street,
a little south of Wightman, site of the weekly City Heights
Farmers Market.

NATURE SPEAKS OUT

The Disaster in Japan March 11.
Was Japan living as an disaster waiting
to happen? Are we?


A QUOTE FROM A MAYOR IN JAPAN
FROM A CITY WITH RADIATION FROM
THE NUCLEAR DISASTER

'If anything good can come of this terrible time for Japan,
it might be that people in big cities question their lifestyle,
which relies so much on the electric power provided by nuclear plants
in little places such as ours,' he said.
'I hope that it prompts the government to rethink its reliance
on nuclear energy, too.'
And when, God willing, Japan emerges
from these dark days, perhaps the government
will learn that it pays to tell the truth.

Nature's Original Technology calls out.
She says, take back the air we breathe.
The Sun that belongs to everyone, the Soil underfoot,
the Water, oh, yes, our Healing Water.
Take it all back. Be one movement,
from border to border,
Turning cities into heights possible
and a community named
City Heights into a place
where people walk and talk
saying hello to each other,
even for a day, even for two days.
One movement--
root to top, top to bottom,
one movement, an Organic Uprising
that Cultivating Food Justice.

Reflections from Leslie Goldman
Your Enchanted Gardener


Now is the time for a Grass Roots movement
that need be no bigger than a repotted beet growing
in a pot surrounded by a sprinking of organic alfalfa seeds.
Such a Grass Roots movement
begins in our own backyard.
The garden we tend need be no larger than a beet
growing in a pot or a bowl full of
organic alfalfa seedings
that feeds our soul
and gives us something to eat.





Michelle Obama and Amy Lint
April 15, 2011





Amy Lint, who led Michelle Obama, on tour through
the New Roots Community Farm last year with Balali Muya,
Keynote speaker on Sunday at the Cultivating Food Justice Conference.

FROM THE
CULTIVATING FOOD JUSTICE SPEAK OUT
9:00 am-10:00 am, April 9, 2011
at the Mid City Police Gymnasium
in City Heights.

The gymnasium is located at

4302 Landis Street
San Diego, CA 92105-2612
(619) 516-3082


What does Cultivating Food Justice locally mean to you? From Leslie Goldman:

April 15, 2010, a few days before the 2010 Cultivating Food Justice
Event at SDSU, Michelle Obama, our First Lady, came to the New Roots Community Farm to launch her national campaign called “Let’s Move!” She said that all eyes of the nation were on this plot of land.

One year later, we return to City Heights for our 2011 Cultivating Food Justice Event. We begin with a Speak Out on Cultivating Food Justice. What Messages does Washington and City Government here in San Diego need to know about Cultivating Food Justice? What messages do we need to Speak Out among ourselves as we seek to create a local sustainable movement? Michelle Obama said “Let’s Move!” I say that the movement can be called an Organic Uprising! By Organically grown, I mean a lifestyle in sync with the beat of nature. Standing Up for Nature’s Original Technology seems a profound priority now,

That is my Take. What is Yours?
The format for the hour long plenary will be four speakers, each with five minutes. Then, we want to hear from you on what Cultivating Food Justice means to you? What messages do we want to Speak out as eyes turn again to City Heights.

This event will be recorded and available to
all who want to see and hear,
and be, as seeds, broadcast.

Speak out on Cultivating Food Justice!

LET ME BEGIN BY CLARIFYING
WHAT IS AN ORGANIC UPRISING?


Let me begin by clarifying.
Organic may be the name for a product today,
but it is more than a quality of product
or a standard.
Essentially Organic is a Way of Living.
To be Organically Grown is to turn
your beat around with nature.
It is to have a moment of awakening
that honors multi-colored seeds
and the diversity that comes from
things that do not look alike working together.


THE CULTIVATING FOOD JUSTICE EVENT
APRIL 9-10. 2011
http://sdfoodjustice.org/



Such is the case with the Fourth Annual
Cultivating Food Justice Event,
April 9-10, 2011
In my head this event will bookmark
a moment in the History of Peace on Earth.

Join us. Find a way to participate,
to give something, even a hour picking up
trash, or a gift of food for a potluck,
or if you are an industry leader,
in sending coupons, so people who have
never tasted organic products, get the idea,
so they can get the behind
what Gary Hirshberg raps
when he says "Just Eat Organic!"

CITY HEIGHTS:
THE LOCATION

City Heights:
It is one of ten cities rising
with among other things, a grant from
the California Endowment that is here
to give 10 million to uplift.

City Heights:

A gang-visited piece of land trashed
became a New Roots Community Farm
in less than three years, setting a tone for a whole city
wanting community gardens.

City Heights:
It is the place where First Lady Michelle Obama came
and said, "All eyes are looking on this plot of land"
when she knew it was time to say "Let's Move!"

Eyes again return to City Heights April 9-10, 2011
as volunteers freely giving, give view to impossibilities
becoming possible:
People can get along.
Police Stations do have Gymnasiums inside.
Streets do have gardens in between trash pieces
that no one saw saw to pick up,
but for two days will pick up.
Flowers do bloom,
medicinal herbs do grow.
People, even, with two many beers under the belt,
do say hello, and you say hello back.

LETTUCE KEEP THE BEET TOGETHER
ONE BEAT OF NATURE NOW


FOR THE LIFE CONNECTION
AND HUFFINGTON POST
SPRING 2011

Our World can simply not afford
to buck Nature's Original Technology.
not for a dollar, not for one extra penny that takes
Real Food Safety from the mouth of a child who can create
a more beautiful world be they visiting Downtown Disney
or an South East San Diego where a farmers' market
is growing.

Nature's Original Technology calls out.
She says, take Back the air we breathe, the Sun that
belongs to everyone, the soil underfoot,
the Water, oh, yes, our Healing Water.
She speaks to us through seeds we plant.







THE LIFE CONNECTION NEWSPAPER
MARCH 2011

MAKING MISTAKES ARE NECESSARY
FOR GROWTH

We forget that this planet goes hand in hand with the development
of the human Soul. It is through mistakes that most of us
learn the errors of our ways. That is why now, we have to turn
away from Nuclear Power and Genetically Engineered seeds,
we simply cannot afford the cost of the harvest of our mistakes.

Some say there is nothing new under the sun. Now is the time for
something new under the sun, a new kind of power that comes up
from Grass Roots, from beet Roots Growing,
from organic alfalfa in pots growing.

People of the street are called now to touch base with
[organic industry leaders] with industry leaders,
and our elected officers who are called to come
to an understanding of Real Food Safety.
The buy out of elected officials needs to end.

Here is the truth:

Big is fragile. Too big breaks.
Little can be solid, it can bend
as grass. Ag is intended to be a multi-cultural happening.
It is not chemically fertilzed at its best,
it does not prosper from Science in the hands of real estate
like agents patenting genes.

RIght now, to Survive This Day,
we need no less than 10,000 new microfarmers,
and a million more gardeners.
This would be Victory. This would inspire
authentic economic recovery and
home land earth based security.


Chernobyl,
Nakasaki,
Three Mile Island,
the repeating heartbreaks of New Orleans
the Fukushima Nuclear Accident,
the deregulation of Genetically Engineered corn in Iowa,
the non-labeling of GMO foods in our supermarkets,
the proliferation of farmers committing suicide
in India, and wisdom filled gardeners in Kenya
wanting to hold on to something unplastic,
all these ask that we have
a moment of awakening, that we turn our beat
around with nature. and see we are one beet, many pulses.

Look at us.
We are living as earthquakes waiting to happen
that call for the same solution:
Come home to Nature's Original Technology.

Nuclear Power and GMO's,
these things we call Genetically Modified Organisms,
they come from the same place.
They are errors in judgement,
Unless we turn our beat around,
we will never get where it is possible to go:
1000 years from now.

The heart falls.
Grief overtakes us.
We become despondent
and cannot engage one more time,
yet we cannot give less now
than what we have left.

Life is a Rock Your Soul Opera.
Suddenly, more and more people
are realizing we simple need a Take Two for Planet Earth.
The outcome is in our hands.
The Bank of Compost is calling us out.
The time for a Great Earth Clean Up is past tense.
We have messed up, and we are called to fess up.

In spite of the mistake of Japan that disheartens
and frightens us,
the mistakes of our President who gave us hope
and is now taking away the healthy future for our food
in the name of generating business
while in his own White House he eats pesticide free,
we simply have to toss off our
grief and discouragement,
and engage once again.

We need to plant a new seed now and a seed dream.
This means all of us who care for life coming together
as one movement.

I call this movement an Organic Uprising!
Standing Up for Nature's Original Technology.

Life on this planet has always been,
and will always be an Organic Uprising!


ONE POT
ONE PERSON
YOU ARE A GARDENER

Now is the time that we Take Back our planet,
each of us, personally
turning our beat around.
Plant a Seed. Grow a Whole New World.
Life has always started this way.
Uprising begins with seed and new seed dreams
we grow ourselves in our own "backyard," even
if the soil we care for is no more than
that that contained in one pot,
or bowl filled with tiny seeds or
a repotted beet root.


TO GARDEN

To garden is more than about soil
we are meant to dig;
to garden is a metaphor; to garden is
to connect with our roots.

To be organically grown is
and to recognize that the earth and the soul and soilmates.
To get here is a process. I find it began for me
when I first planted food.
For you, it could begin with growing a
beet in a pot, sprinkling in some organic alfalfa
seeds, or planting seeds in the ground of your
organic choice.



RETURNING TO AMERICA THE BEAUTIFUL



All of us now--those in [the Natural Product] Industry, those
who whose fist touches hoe,
who know now food justice nor
that our food is in an emergency state,
all of us-- are called now to return
to the world of America The Beautiful.
The later verses read:

*O beautiful for spacious skies,
For amber waves of grain...

America! America!
God shed his grace on thee
Till selfish gain no longer stain
The banner of the free!

America! America!
God mend thine every flaw,
Confirm thy soul in self-control,
Thy liberty in law!

America! America!
May God thy gold refine
Till all success be nobleness
And every gain divine!

O beautiful...
...beyond the years
...alabaster cities gleam
Undimmed by human tears!
America! America!
God shed...grace on thee
Till nobler men, and [mothers,
and fathers, and children] keep once again
[a] [multi-colored]* jubilee!


I changed some of the words
that are in [Leslie Goldman].

by Katherine Lee Bates
in 1893.

LETS ALL WORK TOGETHER NOW
ORGANIC INDUSTRY AND GRASS ROOTS

It is easy to tear down the big Organic Industry
Stakeholders. Anyone who sticks themselves out
is open for potshots.

I have a sense that numbers of these leaders
who once the hippies of the 60's

Michael Becancon, the #4 in Whole Foods Market,
was my original Avocado Sandwich maker.

This is the man who introduced me to the Essene Gospel of Peace....


Organic Uprising, City Heights Apr 9-10, 2011
http://curezone.com/blogs/fm.asp?i=1788095


MY POSITION ON THE GALVANIZING OF
AN ORGANIC UPRISING!

It is time for all of us to come together.
We at the grassroots, are called to recognize
that the organic industry leaders
are here to work with the grassroots activists

The Industry leaders and the local gardeners
bonding and feeding each other from their
resources will co-create a movement that
creates the tipping point now to challenge
GMO non-labeling and turn the government
around in 18 months.

This is what I am seeding this Spring.


As Gary Hirshberg, Ce-Yo of Stonyfield Farms
said, "Our children will never forgive us
if we do not act now!

THIS IS SERIOUS

Latter-Day Luther Nails Troubling Thesis to GM Farm & Food Citadels
© 2011 – by Steven McFadden

Most dramatically, Huber reported on what he described as a newly discovered pathogen. While the pathogen is not new to the environment, Huber said, it is new to science. This pathogen apparently increases in soil treated with glyphosate, he said, and is then taken up by plants, later transmitted to animals via their feed, and onward to human beings by the plants and meat they consume. The pathogen is extraordinarily small. It can be observed only via an electron microscope operating at 38,000 power of magnification. It has yet to be phenotyped or named, though that work is almost complete and will be announced in a matter of weeks.

Huber warned that ignoring these emerging realities may have dire consequences for agriculture such as rendering soils infertile, crops non-productive, and plants less nutritious. It could also, and apparently already is, he said, compromising the health and well-being of animals and humans.

The Stratosphere of Controversy

Alfalafa
What propelled Huber, glyphosate and biotech crops into the stratosphere of public attention earlier this year was a pending decision on alfalfa (hay) by the US Department of Agriculture (USDA). The “queen of forages,” alfalfa is the principal feedstock for the dairy industry. The USDA was being asked to approve

TOXINS IN OUR KID's FOODS
ARTIFICIAL DYES
AND THE FDA
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/laurie-david/post_1891_b_843577.html

Our American companies had removed these harmful ingredients from their products overseas -- but not here!

Kraft, Coca Cola and Wal-Mart are living proof that it is possible for giant corporations to make and sell kid-friendly, family-friendly, and healthy processed food without necessarily exposing them to a chemical cocktail that might also give them allergic reactions, brain tumors, or leukemia, or the symptoms of ADHD, as the Center for Science in the Public Interest recently highlighted in their report Rainbow of Risks.

No need to go through all the numbers for increased health problems here. You've heard them all and it isn't pretty. For goodness sake, no more research necessary. Lets stop poisoning our own kids. Lets start assuming chemicals are dangerous until proven safe, not the other way around.

Is it too much to ask the FDA and the processed food companies for the same value to be placed on the lives of the American kids in their cost-benefit analyses that has been placed on the lives of kids in the UK?
