Greetings!

The most essential and overlooked key to positive social transformation, is our 
daily food choices-and the main factors determining 
these choices are the communities we are born into and in which we live.

The Farm is a cultural treasure of Americana that has blessed our culture in 
countless ways over the past four decades. I believe every one of us who is 
conscious today and working for a more inclusive, harmonious, sustainable, 
just, and free world owe a large debt of gratitude to this visionary 
community, and that visiting The Farm can be a profoundly educational and 
inspiring experience. 

Did you know that besides being the largest vegan community in North America 
in the 1970s, when I visited it and was inspired to go vegetarian, The Farm 
pioneered many of the healthy alternatives we enjoy today, such as inventing 
the first non-dairy ice cream ("Ice Bean") and discovering and introducing 
into North America the wonderful South American grain quinoa? 

Countless people have been inspired to go vegetarian and vegan because of The 
Farm's living example, and the huge number of vegan books they have published 
over the years have inspired others to reduce their eco-footprints through The Farm's 
EcoVillage Training Center. And there's a lot more.

We are honored that we have been invited to The Farm in May to continue and 
deepen The Farm's commitment to positive social transformation and community 
empowerment. 

The World Peace Diet Conference-Retreat we are presenting there May 3-6 will 
be a fantastic opportunity to experience vegan community in the very heart of 
the longest-running and most influential veg community in North America, and 
to deepen our understanding of how we can thrive on every level in our lives 
and effectively help others to do the same. 

It will be a time of learning, sharing, relaxing, and deepening our spiritual 
connection to the Earth and to web of relationships that is our life.

If you'd like to learn more about plant-based nutrition, this event will be 
for you.

If you'd like to explore and experience vegetarian community, or to learn 
more about veganic gardening, or to have a chance to meet like-minded people, 
or to contribute to building a more compassionate and healthy world, this 
event will be for you.

Please join us! For more information and to register, please go to:

It's just a month away now -- please register if you'd like to join us or let 
us know if you have any questions about it.

Thanks for shining the light of peace, kindness, and joy into our world. 
Together, we are creating a more harmonious world.

With love and best wishes,

Will
