Child with the number 20 balloons

This month we celebrate twenty years since I established Nourishing Our Children! Our reach and impact has far exceeded what I envisioned possible when I embarked.

It all started with me founding the Weston A. Price Foundation’s San Francisco chapter in the spring of 2004 not long after I met Dr. Tom Cowan, MD, for my first office visit. At the time I had a private practice as a learning specialist and wanted to create content I could present to parents on how to nourish their children. I had concluded that the children who were having difficulty learning were well-fed, but malnourished. I took a workshop called The Bigger Game wanting guidance on how to extend my reach beyond the limited number of families in my practice, and Nourishing Our Children was born. My mother provided me with the first incredibly generous donation that allowed me to close my private practice to focus on launching this educational initiative as a project of the Weston A. Price Foundation in June 2005. The first educational tool I created was a PowerPoint based on research done by Sally Fallon Morell. I was blessed with a number of volunteers who helped me edit it. Once it was complete, a number of local Weston A. Price Foundation members and I presented it to groups in the Bay Area and then I started to distribute it widely to people all over the world to present in their communities. A study guide followed to help presenters learn the content, and then an ebook, audio book and a DVD. I’ve also created a Food Pyramid Chart and wrote and self-published 2 children’s books that I have sold out of: The Adventures of Andrew Price and A Real Food Alphabet. We will reprint the latest book this year! We have a community of over 92K on Facebook and 50K on Instagram. We have a closed, private Facebook group to support those who seek to nourish their children according to our recommendations. To learn more:

SALLY FALLON MORELL

Nourishing Our Children is entirely based on what Sally Fallon Morell teaches us about how to nourish our children, and we wouldn’t exist without her. Her presence in my life has had a profound impact on me personally and professionally. As we celebrate this milestone, I am keenly aware we do so only with her leading the way!

“Do not go where the path may lead. Go instead where there is no path and leave a trail.” – Ralph Waldo Emerson

In celebration of our 20 years, Sally is giving away 3 of her books:
