This photo, taken May 6, 2012, at Professor’s Park in Tecate, shows Deborah Szekely, a few days after her 90th Birthday, sharing love and appreciation for an Elder, Felimon Garcia, who worked at the Ranch for many years. He would bring fresh fertile eggs he told me to the Professor, co-founder of Rancho La Puerta, and the rest of the family. This photo is Deborah Szekely at 90. The fruits of her labor, vision, and personal health practices show in this photo of the woman called “The Godmother of Wellness.” Visions for good spring from the Wellness Springs of the Szekely family. It is time now for Deborah to have an even greater impact on U.S. and World Health. Let us support her in her 90th Birthday Wish: $10,000,000 to help switch the nation’s health around. She is calling for people to give $10.00 each, and join her cause. Be examples of wellness in our own lives, as well as influence Washington, she says in the video above.

My Garden Management Journal

May 23, 2012

It is my first morning home from a transformational life shifting experience thanks to my stay at Rancho La Puerta.

I am filled with ideas for Plant Your Dream Blogs.

The first thing I am doing is to support the wishes of Deborah Szekely. Called the Godmother of Wellness, she spoke Monday night at the Ranch.

Deborah Szekely commented on how she felt.

She said that 90 felt like 60.

Deborah, who said she had lived in Washington D.C. for 17 years, stays young through coming up with new ideas.

Well Spring is the latest that has come my way.

I am going to spread the word here on the Plant Your Dream Blogs.

Anything that Deborah Szekely says do, I will always want to support. Her personal life and vision has been at the heart beat of wellness for more than 73 years as the co-founder of the #1 Destination Spa in the World, Rancho La Puerta.

In this series of Plant Your Dream Blogs, I will share why I feel Rancho La Puerta is the #1 Destination Spa in the World.

I will share my personal reflections from my most recent visit.

Chewing on Food Safety

GROW A HEALTHIER PIZZA!” WORKSHOP @ THE NATIONAL HEIRLOOM EXPO, SEPTEMBER 11,12, 13

I am setting out in 2012 to inspire thousands of new gardeners. I set this intention when I spoke at Organic Listening Day at the USDA in Washington September 20, 2011, and volunteered to be the Enchanted Gardener for the People’s Garden Initiative. The beginning: We can each grow some of our own food in containers and get our beat back with nature. I travel with a silver box that contains the deepest dreams of humanity, and a pot where you are invited to Plant Your Dream. I hand out seeds to others as well and encourage their planting. We have reached a tipping point of consumer initiative thanks to so many divergent voices coming together. A literal grassroots movement of gardeners will inspire the White House, Congress, and its Federal agencies to come to terms with Real Food Safety; this includes GMO proliferation. Our Food Emergency is my pressing issue of the 2012 campaign. As a consumer movement, the Right to Know Initiative reached near 1,000,000 signers in early May to get on the California Ballot. Now we are taking the next step at the ballot box this November. Washington is in the farm bed with Biotech Agriculture. Thousands more small gardeners are needed, and a new generation of organic farmers. We will ignite a movement of 10 million strong or more leading to ‘Uncle Sam Marries “Anti” GMO.’ “Grow a Healthier Pizza” is my contribution toward this victory through blogging, educating and planting strong intentions.
