Sally Fallon Speaking Engagement

Dear Friends,

As you know I have strongly advocated the principles of Nourishing Traditions and a Nutrient Dense Diet (scroll way down) for several years. Today, I'm delighted to tell you about the Deidre Currie Festival which has great guest speakers, including Sally Fallon, lined up to teach more about traditional foods and nutrition on Sept 13.

My friend, Kelly the Kitchen Kop, www.kellythekitchenkop.com, who has frequently helped me with phone seminar transcripts, wanted all Nourishing Traditions enthusiasts to know about this upcoming Sally Fallon speaking engagement.

Kelly writes:

"Last fall, my friend Kathy spoke at a Weston A. Price conference near Detroit, organized by a woman named Deidre Currie. At the time, Deidre was pregnant with she & Archie's first child. Sadly, it wasn't long after the conference that Deidre passed away, just after giving birth to their baby boy, Jack.

This fall, her husband is organizing the Deidre Currie Festival in Ann Arbor, Michigan on September 13th, 2008, to honor her memory. He has some great speakers lined up to teach us more about traditional foods and nutrition, which Deidre was passionate about."

I wanted you all to know about this Festival, because as a recent widow myself, my heart goes out to Deidre's husband Archie, a single dad of their infant son.

Here is the Speaker line-up:

---Sally Fallon, President of the Weston A. Price Foundation, Author of Nourishing Traditions: The Cookbook that Challenges Politically Correct Nutrition and the Diet Dictocrats

---Dr. Natasha Campbell-McBride, author of Gut and Psychology Syndrome: Natural Treatment for Autism, ADD/ADHD, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia, Depression, Schizophrenia (watch for a post about all this coming out soon)

---Jerry Brunetti, one of nation’s foremost experts on food, farming and health

---Karen Lubbers, Michigan farmer, teacher, environmentalist
