No Trial this week? What do we do now?

May 19, 2012

Hello Trad Fooders,

As I take a breath and shift my focus from the short-term goal of

self-preservation to a much more manageable goal of community solidarity, I can

say that having a chance to stand in the presence and shake the hand or Dr. Ron

is an experience that will not soon be forgotten. This was a very cool way

to complement a week that began amid a large support group of local and far away

neighbors at the planned rally at our trial site. This healthy foods community

is such a blessing that I can't say enough about it. I had a chance to

participate in energy healing with (realfoodie) on Thursday.

Uncovered a major issue with regard to my late FIL as he was a major proponent

of raw milk and sustainable farming. Seems that I've been " mad " at him since He

(Elmer) left us, in July of 2008. Just a few weeks after losing my (83 yo) Dad,

my wife (Alice) and I had to deal with losing her Dad (73 yo) from pulmonary

fibrosis. I searched the country far and wide to find a remedy and when I

offered it, was put off by the " normal " syndrome - that it would be too unusual

for the medical establishment. Watching these two men struggle to breathe for

the last months of their lives gave me a real purpose of improving the potential

for the long-term health of our community as we deal with the business of food

and the government agencies that are driven by that business. I had a brief

discussion with Reese (Honeymoon Creamery) about the next phase in this

healthy food project that must include a real ownership position for our

interdependent families while they enjoy the peace of mind that comes from a

commitment to their food sources. We'll expand on this very soon. Stay tuned and

THANK YOU to all that brought your support to the rally and rights workshop as

well as those that prayed for a good outcome. At this time, we have no

reschedule date set, a new judge for our case and more time to plan for the

future. No matter what happens at trial, we need to continue to forge an even

more obvious connection between our farm equity and our supply of nutrient dense

foods. Be well, Alvin
