Joel Salatin, Beyond Organic : Local Foods to the Rescue
Join Transition Colorado for an evening with Joel Salatin, the world's most-recognized "beyond organic" and strictly local, clean food farmer, prolific author and inspiring speaker. Salatin, with his family owns Polyface Farm in Virginia, featured prominently in the NYT bestseller "Omnivore's Dilemma" and the Oscar-nominated documentary, "Food Inc.," as well as "Fresh: The Movie."
In this dynamic presentation, Joel will reveal the astonishingly obvious steps we all must take towards a food future that is beyond sustainable. If you are a farmer, understand your potential to renew and inspire your local community through clean food. If you live in town, discover the power you have to patronize your local farms and decouple them from wholly unfair corporate forces. Help your local farmers transform their farms into profitable and wholesome operations producing food you can trust. Become instrumental in the conscientious transformation of the current dysfunctional food production system to the regenerative model that Polyface Farm has proven wildly successful.
Ride the free HOP 2 Chautauqua shuttle to this event.

How many here think it's OK to take someone else's child to a pool? Say your babysitting, you have two kids and you watch two kids; it's hot and you decide to go to the pool at your apartments. Does anyone think this is wrong? Would you allow your child to go to the pool with your baby sitter? One mom told me she would swap three kids with another mom who had three kids.... they would have no reservations with each others children, they would go anywhere with 6 kids in tow.
Play dates around the world are happening every day. Mom's (and/or dads) get together while children get to play. The next time you go to a play date, look around you ... how many conversations are happening with eye to eye contact.
After my horrible tragedy, I learned of a term called surveillance. They teach life guards how to never make eye contact. There was a nanny I spoke to one, who was taught this very thing in nanny school.
The next time you are at a play date, please practice surveillance. Tell other mom's about surveillance.
