MORE COMING FOR MEN FAIR

            I promise not to inundate you all with promotions of the first ever on-farm Mother Earth News Fair here at Polyface July 17-18, but when I'm giddy about developments, I can't help but share things.  And for sure, if we're going to go to all the effort to do this, we want it to be the biggest, baddest demonstration of today's anti-orthodoxy you can imagine.  Like putting a stake in the sand and re-claiming our world and our lives to a healing trajectory; we are not for sale.

             And yes, we definitely want to hit our capacity of 10,000 people over the two days.  Take that, Monsanto, Tyson, and Impossible Burger.  This is how many people have not bowed their knees to Baal, and we ain't going away.

             So here is the line-up of headliner speakers.  You will never see this cast in one place, ever:

             Eliot Coleman--protege of Scott and Helen Nearing and world icon of extended season vegetable production and profitable small-scale commercial gardening.

             Sally Fallon Morrel--founder and president of the worldwide Weston A. Price Foundation

             Dr. Sina McCullough--biochemist nutritionist food coach and my co-author of the upcoming book BEYOND LABELS.

             Diana Rodgers--credentials in nutrition and dietetics up the wazoo, hostess of acclaimed podcast THE SUSTAINABLE DISH and debuting as part of the fair her blockbuster documentary  SACRED COW.

             Robb Wolf--founder of Paleo, author, and defender of primal eating

             Darren Doherty--founder of Regrarians and the farm development platform "10 Points of Permanence" based on P.A. Yeoman's work; debuting his new Regrarians Handbook at the fair (he's Australian, so you'll want to listen to him just to enjoy the accent)

             Dan Kittredge--founder and chief at the Bionutrient  Food Association and ramrod behind developing empirical democratized nutrient testing

             J.M. Fortier--Canadian protege of Eliot Coleman and guru of full time salaried produce micro-farming

             Dick Cheatham--world class costumed historical re-enactor presenting "The Homesteader Who Saved America"

             Rory Feek--legendary singer/songwriter from Nashville in concert Friday evening

             Joel Salatin--'nuff said.

             Now you tell me, who wouldn't want to come and hobnob with this lineup for two days?  And now we have a live horse logging demonstration in the works, live biochar creation (that involves fire, folks) and so much more you can't imagine.  It'll be a day for the ages, so make your plans now.  I'm told that the 1,400 rooms in the immediate Staunton area are already getting booked out.  Wooohoooo!

             Go to Mother Earth News Fair to register.

             What are you waiting for?  ha!

 P.S.  Share this with your friends and anyone else you think might possibly want to identify with a tribe, a movement that dares to be independent, free, self-organizing, caretakers of our ecology and promoters of authentic nutrition.  Thank you.
