WHY a Woodstock Window on Food & Health?

 

Short Letter from ‘That Gutsy Lady’

 

As a wide-eyed 23-year-old who picked up on the energy and got myself there, the original 1969 Woodstock Festival was clearly the most pivotal experience of my life.

Now, as an ex-hippie, deeply committed Grandmother of the Organic Movement, looking back over how the past 50 years have unfolded, what comes to mind are The Grateful Dead lyrics from Truckin’:

“Sometimes the light’s all shinin’ on me,
Other times I can barely see,
Lately It occurs to me,
What a long, strange trip it’s been.”

So, I decided to create this, what I’m calling “Fun & Fundamental” Big Picture Adult Activity and Coloring Book for this 50th Anniversary.
That’s to help us celebrate, see where we’ve been, and open up a new, wider, more expansive window or view on where we all are now ~ and where we’re headed. Especially when it comes to our health and the health of our planet.

Clearly, like we discovered at Woodstock, we CAN come together
in peace, harmony and healthy community and make a difference
for ourselves and our planet. It doesn’t take much. The choice is up
to us, as ONE in peace, harmony, etc..

One in the Work,
‘That Gutsy Lady’,

The HIGHLIGHTS and the DOWNSIDES
of “Where we’ve Been, Where We’re At
AND MOST IMPORTANTLY,
WHAT’s Going to Be UP for US in the NEXT critical 50 years on the planet!

 

But WHY a Food and Health Focus?  I thought there wasn’t much food there…   Ironically, there wasn’t.  We were hungry for something else, but food wasn’t it. In the end, in the midst of drastic extremes, we were clearly Nourished… by Something Else.  And then we Beans ‘n Grains hippies went on to seed the Healthy Food Revolution that’s still happening today.

                                         FOOD IS A KEY.

Food is Fundamental, not only for our own personal health and well-being, but because it’s such a BIG ISSUE.  It’s such a large industry, such a huge part of our life, our economy and now the Global Economy, it’s critical to our survival.  And our Well-Being.

WHY Should You Care? 
Maybe you’re one of the many of us who’ve realized that we have to take care of ourselves and the planet. Or Maybe You haven’t thought about it yet. Or that the lifestyle choices we make now affect our quality of life and how long we’re going to live.

 

 

But Let Me ask you Something…
Do You Like Eating?  

If that seems like a dumb question, slow down a bit. Maybe it isn’t.   Regardless of what you hear, climate change has, IS and will continue to have a major impact on our food and agriculture system. And its ability to produce enough food for the 7.5 billion plus people projected on the planet by 2050.  Choices we make now will determine the outcome: Will we be Getting Ourselves Back to the Garden?
Or just on a bumpy ride into more Garbage and outta here?
