Two friends from the big city plant a single acre of the nation's most powerful crop, corn, and then follow it from seed to the dinner plate. John Hartl of the Seattle Times calls KING CORN, "simultaneously nostalgic and sinister." Part horror film and part documentary, KING CORN exposes the truth behind what you're eating. Have you been wondering why Americans are so overweight? Or why certain foods are so cheap? Have you heard our average life expectancy is headed down, not up? Find out why! To RSVP call 800-930-6060 and press 3.

This may include anything from clothes to knick-knacks, appliances, books, or movies... even things that have been sentimental to you in the past but you no longer find a need for. Whatever these "things" are - you are welcome to bring them to our house to share with the community - out with the old - in with the new!

Please note that this is not a "junk dumping" session - bring things that you think may be useful to other people in your community. Any items left over will be donated to charity. We are also requesting a few volunteers to help take carloads of stuff away at the end of the giveaway.

Also, please feel free to bring raw snacks to share!

For questions, please call Monika. RSVP with Andrea.

Some people who have taken NCD report dramatic recoveries from life-threatening diseases, such as cancer. NCD is also taken by individuals who want to remove toxins and heavy metals from their body, thereby allowing the body to heal itself.

Gaius will be talking about Uri, a company that produces organic live raw food supplements. Uri's main product, The Feast, contains 30 different antioxidant fruits and berries, including noni, mangosteen, wolfberry, goji and acai. It also contains 30 different types of greens and vegetables, along with nuts, sprouts, seeds, enzymes and 22 different types of living probiotics. The product is free of pesticides, GMOs, irradiation and animal products. All ingredients are organic and have been dried at low temperatures.

These are two exciting products and give our bodies the tools it needs to fight disease and aging.

Bring: Friends and a raw or vegan snack. Snack is optional as we will be providing snacks as well.

This special event will be an afternoon to remember, and Monika's COMMITMENT for this event is that ALL GUESTS, each and every one, leave the event having created a NEW POSSIBILITY for themselves in an area of life that is important to them that will touch, move, and inspire them as they enter the holiday season.

Friday, September 28: Matt Monarch - Raw Spirit
14500 Juanita Dr. NE, Kenmore, WA (Bastyr University Auditorium) 6:00 - 9:00 p.m.

DOWNLOAD FLYER

Join Raw Network of Washington for a special night with special guest Matt Monarch, author of Raw Spirit. Matt Monarch is 100% raw vegan; his diet consists of only raw vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds and seaweeds. He has been eating this way for six years and enjoys extraordinary good health, bountiful energy, clarity of mind and a deepened connection to nature.

Prior to going raw, Matt worked in a demanding corporate environment and ate a standard American bachelor's diet, including cooked meats, dairy, bread, greasy foods and candy. Despite this, when he went raw, his overall health was good - other than a few pimples, he was in great shape. Matt did not go raw therefore to relieve any major health issues - he simply received and whole-heartedly embraced the raw lifestyle as something that made complete sense to him. He was particularly attracted to the fact that this lifestyle offered increased longevity and freedom from degenerative disease.

Matt dove head-first into a 100% raw vegan lifestyle after reading Dr Norman Walker's classic raw food book 'Become Younger'. His initial detox and weight loss concerned family and friends, but he was fascinated with this new way of living and persisted. Matt's interest led him to thoroughly research the many different ideologies in the raw movement and delve into his own experiments. He was most impressed by the work of raw food pioneer and 50 year nutritionist Dr Fred Bisci, PhD. After meeting at a raw food festival in Oregon, Matt and Fred went on to forge a strong friendship together. They then co-created www.TheRawFoodWorld.com as a resource centre of tools to help people live free from degenerative disease. They are dedicated to sourcing and providing the best products available. www.LivingNutritionals.com was also created as a separate venture by Matt to reach out to those beyond the raw community who are interested in nutrition but are not necessarily motivated to go raw at this stage.

After five years of eating a 100% raw food diet, Matt was inspired to write a book called Raw Spirit. He wanted to share information that he thought needed to be out there, reflecting in particular on some of the physical challenges of going raw, along with the amazing shifts he experienced on the spiritual level with this lifestyle. Raw Spirit has become one of the best-selling raw books available: people appreciate Matt's honest approach and his willingness to discuss aspects of being raw that often go unmentioned. He is committed to the raw lifestyle and passionate about spreading this message of health to others. Born and raised in California, he now travels all over the world, lecturing on raw foods and exploring the delights of fresh raw produce in different locations. He inspires audiences with his enthusiasm and simple, accessible approach to going raw in a healthy and sustainable way and is sought after as a speaker at raw gatherings.

Saturday, August 18: Supercharge Me! 30 Days Raw
14500 Juanita Dr. NE, Kenmore, WA (Bastyr University) 6:30 - 8:30 p.m.

Join Raw Network of Washington for a special showing of Supercharge Me! 30 Days Raw with Q&A from our Special Guest Filmmaker Jenna Norwood. Supercharge Me! is one of the most talked-about documentaries this year. In March, Supercharge Me! won "Best Motivational Film" at the first-ever Raw Lifestyle Film Festival in Hollywood, California after already having won the "Best Documentary" award at the prestigious 9th Annual Tofino Film Festival on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. Tofino is an international showplace for entertaining films dedicated to the environment, conservation and healthy living.

This independent documentary film is the story of one young woman's lifelong dream: to dress up as a Las Vegas showgirl for Halloween. That dream met bulging reality in the mirror, but she was determined to make her dream come true by spending 30 days eating only vegan, raw, organic food and learning a new lifestyle. The "rawcumentary" is the healthy answer to "Super Size Me," the documentary by Morgan Spurlock who ate only McDonald's food for 30 days and suffered the consequences.

Emmy Award-winning TV producer John Biffar called the film not only entertaining and engaging, " ... but one that does what few films can ... make you a different person by the time the credits roll." Ben Vereen said, "I love it!" Praise comes also from Chris Haley, nephew of author Alex Haley (Roots) and Director of the Utopia Film Festival in Greenbelt, Maryland. When "Supercharge Me!" was screened there, Haley termed it "not only a crowd-pleaser, but it sparked action on many of its viewers to get out and immediately ravage some raw foods!"

"Supercharge Me!" tells the transformational story of independent producer Jenna Norwood. Her Las Vegas dream took her on an odyssey from Sarasota, Florida to San Diego, California, where she began a 30-day raw food "detox" program. The program focused on cleansing the body from the inside out and learning a lifestyle based on uncooked "living foods," including organic fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, sprouted grains and juices. Cameras followed Jenna as she interviewed raw food guru David Wolfe, doctors, celebrities (Ben Vereen and Kathy Sledge) and others who follow the raw food lifestyle.

Bring bicycles for fun cruises around the park and down to the waterfront!

These events are about abundance, therefore, each person is requested to bring a prepared dish large enough that, if eaten alone, it would completely satisfy 2 or more people (couples 4 or more people).

Please provide a detailed list of ingredients, and the recipe, if possible.

If it's your first time and you don't know what to bring, but are interested in coming, just bring an organic salad with dressing on the side. Please bring your own plates and silverware.

Saturday, April 21: Film: Interview with Sergei Boutenko
36 SW 8th St, College Place, WA (Village Church Youth Center) 8:00 - 9:15 p.m.

At 9 years old, Sergei was diagnosed with diabetes. His desperate mother changed the family's diet. The only food left in the kitchen was a bowl of fresh fruit and a bowl of fresh vegetables. In his new video, Sergei, now in college, shares his response that day and the following months and years as he adapted to a new diet and lifestyle. "Interview with Sergei Boutenko" was voted the "most entertaining film" at the Raw Lifestyle Film Festival in Los Angeles in March 2007. Come see this 45-minute movie at the Villiage Church Youth Center at 8:00 p.m. on April 21. $5 at the door.
