The Weston A. Price Foundation is a nonprofit, tax-exempt charity founded in 1999 to disseminate the research of nutrition pioneer Dr. Weston Price, whose studies of isolated nonindustrialized peoples established the parameters of human health and determined the optimum characteristics of human diets. Dr. Price's research demonstrated that humans achieve perfect physical form and perfect health generation after generation only when they consume nutrient-dense whole foods and the vital fat-soluble activators found exclusively in animal fats. The Foundation is dedicated to restoring nutrient-dense foods to the human diet through education, research and activism. It supports a number of movements that contribute to this objective.
Our chapter provides information on sources of organic foods, raw milk products from pasture-fed livestock, pasture-fed eggs and livestock and properly produced whole foods in the East Valley, including the Phoenix metro area.
We have a lively discussion group as well as regular gatherings for us to meet in person. These include potlucks and meetings with demonstrations. We share techniques and tips for living a traditional-foods lifestyle.
You are welcome to join, even if you don't live in this area. This is not an anonymous group, because we meet together in person, so you'll need to provide your real name when you register. People who act disrespectfully will be blocked from the group. Cheers!
These are some of the places you can get good food in the area. There are other sources - for these, you'll need to join and participate in our forums.
This is to make people aware of local resources. Sources may be local stores or independent farmers. Others are chains that have stores here but with products that come from farther away. We receive no money from any of these vendors. We recommend the ones with a good reputation. Please ask about specific animal feed, living conditions, pesticides and post-picking fumigants, water fed to crops or animals, etc.
For more sources, join and ask on our forums.
Contact Heather Gray to get them for $1 (same as WAPF charges)
You may have heard about the almond pasteurization uproar. Almonds labeled "raw" that come from this country, generally California, will have been heat pasteurized or fumigated with propylene glycol (a nasty substance), which is also called "pasteurization." This is not a local product to my knowledge - generally almonds come from California.
