As a young organic homeschooling family going it a bit blind, misadventure seems the natural course of things to come. Join us as we stumble through life, school and food, finding our joys and discovering our paths along the way.

A New Chapter
Quite literally, a new chapter!
Just last month, my friend Tracey and I, (at her urging), started a chapter of the Weston A. Price Foundation in our area. In the past, I had considered doing this, but just had too much else going on to make it happen. But really, it wasn't time until she came along. I can't even tell you how much more is getting done because of her motivation and follow through! We already have a website, (thanks in part to the Santa Barbara folks), a gmail account, a way to send out a monthly newsletter, a FB page and an event, (hopefully with many more to come)!!!
The best part about the website is that we are actually setting up a resource page that I wish I had had three years ago! The joy! No really, it is a pretty exciting time!
In the meantime, we are very excited for summer to start, though we are almost as unplanned as last summer. Hubby is done with school, but hasn't really stopped working yet. The kids will be doing school through the summer, though admittedly it will be much more about field trips than writing samples. Our hope is to head east for a couple weeks to visit family and hit as many historical sites along the way as we can.
Perhaps now that I am on the computer more, I will be blogging more.
Do you have a new chapter starting in YOUR life?

Good for you! We started a chapter in Chico, Ca in Jan of '10 and already have almost 400 members. It's been really rewarding! We're also hosting a Farmageddon screening with Kristin which will be a lot of fun. I deliver our farm products once a year to Pasadena. Let me know if you'd like to be on the email list. Best of luck with everything!
