New Products!
Probiotic organic hummus! Three varieties; Original, Spicy Cayenne, and Indian Spice! Also: sprouted organic Tofu, So Delicious plain and sweetened coconut milks, Wild Yam cream (historically used for hot flashes and for times of imbalance.) We stopped carrying the other creams because they did not use WILD YAM! Be not deceived…nothing works better than Mother Nature! Olbas Analgesic Salve – fast relief of aches and pains, arthritis, backache etc…., Powdered Goat Milk – easy to digest and used by many as the “real milk” alternative for toddlers, Organic Chai Black and Green tea, and the Tampico Skin Brush! (Skin brushing is GREAT!)
It’s up and running….LAMBOFIELDS.COM
Check it out! www.lambofields.com is live and WOW was it fun to do! Now we can’t wait for the actual building! We have had a great response from members of the communities all around us. I met yesterday with Wellspring so we can get more local organic produce next year. Heck, if we have a local farmers market right off of 41, we may be able to help many farmers move their products. We shall wait to see all that unfolds. For now, we are most active in planning the building. Ugh! Old buildings are all I have ever known. We will feel awfully spoiled with a new one.
RAW BREADS
My goodness….our kitchen is HOPPING with raw foods these days. Let’s see……we MASTERED the raw bread recipe, and they hold together PERFECT (as a matter of fact I was so excited I threw a piece like a Frisbee across the room yesterday….almost took out my dear husband who did not know it was coming….), we have five crackers to sample again this week, there are 20 pounds (small batch I know…doing over 150 pounds next week….) of yummy sauerkraut fermenting, two batches of Kombucha, raw bars are on the plate for today and raw granola for next week! You bet your bottom dollar we will be selling RAW FOODS around the globe when we are done.

KAMUT BREAD!
Kamut Flour is VERY sweet without having sugar! It has 40 % more protein than wheat and over 70% of the people with wheat allergies have no problems at all. Yeast free, sugar free, whole grain ancient grain breads are HERE! I found this bread while in Idaho. The shipping was more than the bread, so each loaf cost $5.69 to get in, and we will sell them for $5.99. We want to know if you wish to carry these breads and then perhaps we can convince one of our large distributors to carry them, eliminating the shipping. NO ONE ELSE AROUND HAS THESE YEAST FREE DELICIOUS BREADS so come enjoy! Flavors: Almond Raisin, Cinnamon Raisin, Bagels, White and Whole Grain (only difference is the white bread is made from flour the kamut company grinds and the whole grain is made from kamut Pacific Bakery grinds.) We also have yeast free spelt bread from them!
VYL Classes and NEW CLASS
Tonight’s class is on controlling weight with herbs and oils, Pat and Chris are teaching and their knowledge is GREAT! Next week is all about sugar: where it comes from and how it affects the body! Sweet Deceptions…invite your friends! There is SO MUCH TO LEARN!
NEW CLASS ADDED MONTHLY
Many of you have asked for a beginner’s class, a refresher, or a class you can bring your friends too. HERE YOU GO! The second Tuesday of each month I will present Living with Energy! Time 6:30, Fee $5.00. (I was going to offer this class for free, but my husband said I offer enough and I could not do anything else for free! Sorry!) This one hour class enthusiastically covers: proteins, calcium, the digestive track, minerals, enzymes, living foods, appetite, your colon concerns and sugars. This presentation has been given to several hundred people now, it changes lives, and IT'S FUN! (I pull out my 20' digestive hose........but I won't tell you what I do with it...) So pass this on to your friends who need it! OR COME YOURSELF!
VIDEO TAPE EQUIPMENT NEEDED…and YOU!
We have such GREAT speakers lined up we don’t want to miss a thing! If anyone is willing to let us use their video equipment to videotape a seminar room (we need to tape 7 seminar rooms each at 6 maybe 7 seminars) PLEASE let us know. Then, we need someone who can make copies. If no one steps forth, we will not be videotaping any of the conferences. And YES someone could do this and make a few bucks if they want, I am sure others will pay something for the CD’s full of info that can change their lives! AND the booths are filling up so let your Natural Healing Friends and Professionals know they do NOT want to miss out on something THIS BIG!!!! If you want a booth, call soon.
YouTube Videos
The EFT and Distilled water videos are up if interested! If you missed the EFT class…..you MISSEED OUT! I will try to set another up again. But our instructor went to Hawaii! ENF = Emotional Freedom Technique. EVERYONE noticed a change, and it was GREAT!

Friday, January 22, 2010
Ok folks, you will NEVER believe what is going on now.....a friend of ours and i had this crazy idea...that has quickly taken flight! This is the birds eye view: An educational center that welcomes school groups and presents a day learning everything from how soil is made to organic farming and composting. presentations on making butter, breads, etc. The building we are looking to build will need a LARGE kitchen for all the foods we sell throughout the Midwest ( raw primarily...just wait to taste what we are up to in the kitchen...) , a conference center for the groups from schools as well as any group wanting to rent the hall for business meetings. The kitchen will cater all organic foods, and the hall capacity will be at least 150. We also need a 3,000 square foot area for Lamborganics, a worm casting business making INCREDIBLE SOIL (took a tour today....WOW), and a few offices for doctors who HEAL WITH FOOD. The 501 (C)(3) Lambo Fields Inc. will operate the facility so we can accept donations to build the buildings and green houses (we already have some huge ones..). This is right off of 41, just a mile or so south of the Freedom RV. The cafe, store, worm farm, educational center, and convention center will be visible by over 40,000 cars each day! A bit more than current exposure! We have 3.5 acres. We wil have organic gardens as well, but we will not be growing all of our food there. They will be for demonstrations. HOWEVER we will be starting seeds for herbs, vegetables and flowers hopefully yet this year!
WE NEED YOU! (Or someone you know!) We Need ASAP: A very good architect, someone to help with our business plan, someone to research grants, and feedback on what you would like to see at the educational center. We have many resources already lined up and ideally would like to build a very green building as well. The building itself can be a “show and tell” for green buildings. There are some pretty influential people who are VERY excited about this project, and I just PINCH myself that we can be part of this! YEAH!
EXPO NEWS:
Pricing has been set! Holistic Health Expo $5.00 advance tickets and $7.00 for tickets at the door.
The dance that night will be INCREDIBLE! The price for that is the same: $5.00 advance tickets and $7.00 for tickets at the door. Organic wine & beer tasting along with FREE DANCE INSTRUCTION for an hour before the band begins! Black and White is the band we have chosen, and I have LOVED them for years! FUN music, and they have only gotten better since I first heard them 15 years ago. It was great when Rita, the do-everything-in-the-background organizer for the dance, found them! THANKS RITA! And, there is organic wine rolling in our office for the tasting because of her so….you can thank her when you see her!
FINE PRINT GRAPHICS
The owners of Fine Print Graphics is on board as a sponsor for the Expo! THANKS! We will be sending info and printing tickets soon, so keep an eye out!
YOUR money
We want to THANK YOU ALL for supporting NGHC. We are so thankful for all you have done. We want you all to continue to support us as we grow. Thank you for your patience as we learn as well! We brought in Coconut milk and sold it ALL in just days, so we have MANY cases coming in again Tuesday and Wednesday. Sorry there are empty slots in the cooler!

NO stomach aches after taking these babies. Come learn how supplements are made, and the role they play in helping to heal and maintain a healthy body. Mark is INCREDIBLY informative, and has a positive uplifting attitude towards great health. He believes in health as much as I do, and wants perfect health for every one he can serve. PLEASE bring your friends. As always, I don’t care about money to the extent people cannot come. If there is anyone who wishes to come, do so and just pay what you can towards the class. There is no reason for anyone to NOT get the education about great healthy supplementation, so please come!

OILS! EXPO! VINEGARS!
FANTASTIC Balsamic Vinegars & Organic Olive Oils IN!
GODA oils and Vinegars are the BEST I have tasted! Their quaint storefront in Milwaukee is charming, but a few miles away so GUESS WHAT! We brought them to Washington County! Come in and sample their delicious 18 year balsamic vinegar and these terrific flavors: Raspberry, Strawberry, Pomegranate, Black Cherry, Coconut, Cinnamon Pear, and their oils fused with these flavors: Oregano, Basil, Mushroom and Sage, Italian Herb, and Orange. Enjoy tasting their main stay…..organic olive oil! Your salads, sautéed vegetables and steamed dishes will NEVER be the same again!
EXPO INFO
Ok, the ball is REALLY ROLLING! We have found the NEATEST naturopath doctors and professionals in the area. It has been amazing to speak with these diverse and knowledgeable people, who are VERY EXCITED to be part of the April 24th Holistic Health Expo! I wish I could take your time and write about each one….but that will come. PLEASE mark that date, you will not want to miss the opportunity of meeting all of these gifted people. Now, FEEDBACK TIME. Due to the lovely economical circumstances we are in, we made a few changes to the Expo. First, we lowered the booth charge by a considerable amount. We were able to do so because we are now using local professionals to do the speaking for the 40 seminars (we were going to fly in some great key note speakers, but maybe next year!) We also cut our some of the fluff we were offering with the booths. Now we need YOUR input. Please respond to the following questions: What would be a comfortable entrance fee for the expo (the entrance fee includes the seminars), and are you interested in attending a social dance that night. We are tossing around the idea of having a live band, organic wine and beer tasting (already lining up, Rita is determined to get wine in this store…), free dance instruction from Fred Astaire Dance Studio and then a fun dance! BUT we will not pursue this unless we have some feedback from those who wish to participate. The dance evening would need a cover charge as well. We were considering two ticket fees, one to cover the dance and the Expo, and then separate fees for both the dance and for the expo. Our thoughts are: $15.00 for both events, $6-8.00 for the expo and $10.00 for the dance. There are people who have compared our event to the ones in Chicago or Madison and wonder why we charge more than $5.00 for an entrance fee. WE HAVE NO SPONSORS other than our small mom and pop store! (mom & pop and many chitlins by the way…they need recognition too…) We are looking for sponsors, but this is our first show. We have someone working on sponsors next week. We desire you all to come and take part in an outstanding educational experience through this expo, and it takes money. BUT if the entrance fee is too high…people may not come so we need to know what your thoughts are….HONESTLY. Thanks!
BIG STORES
We receive many compliments from visitors and customers about our produce section. Organic produce has a shorter life span than conventional, and needs utmost care to preserve the integrity. Before we opened NGHC we hosted a neighborhood conventional produce co-op for many years. We can attest that what we do now is FAR MORE time consuming than working with conventional! We realize we are competing with the big stores. We keep our prices low, so YOU can afford to make organic produce part of your family meal planning. HOWEVER we are aware that sometimes it is a stretch. Because we have access to conventional produce as well as organic, we were wondering if when there are specials in the conventional world, we could bring some in for you? We would avoid the dirty dozen, and not bring items in we felt uncomfortable about. THOUGHTS? Check out the dirty dozen on the websitre under literature! www.naturesgardenspot.com
PRODUCE PROMOTION
For the rest of the month of January all produce is 10% off! ENJOY the savings!
DISCONTINUED
We have GREAT new products coming next week, so please check out the discontinued items in the front of the store. IF we stop carrying something you love, let us know!

We need grocery bags again. We have not bought a bag in over a year now…thanks to all of you who help recycle them!

You will re-learn about proteins, diets, and taste some yummy reasons why vegetables are a main plate item in our home! I believe we will have Chad joining us. Now, if you attended our sprouting class last year you cannot forget Chad! He was GREAT to have join us, and just happens to be in WI right now so I believe we have him pegged to help teach our class…..bring the young women…he is a catch! (if he is not already caught…) (do you think he will get this?????)opps……
CATERING! LUNCH DELIVERY!
You may have heard rumors…..but they are now true! Our lunch delivery program will be starting within weeks. The menu is AWESOME and we are quite excited to be offering this program. We have had MANY requests, and heck…why not listen to what is wanted?! Your place of business can now have TASTY lunches delivered for your staff. We will be traveling to all local communities to deliver our laminated menus within the next few weeks. If you are interested in a menu for your place of business, please contact us!
We are also offering catering to the surrounding counties for larger scale events. We are looking to be part of the Summerfest activities, Zoo events, weddings, Expos, etc. Our first wedding show is coming up in January, and we are very excited! As a wedding coordinator now for over 450 weddings, I know the people, places and contacts. There are few caterers who can offer the diverse menu planning that we can. We can cater to all food allergies…even at the same event! We will be offering conventional as well as organic entrees, raw foods, and kosher options so people can plan within their budgets. We do have a few integrity points: NO canned vegetables, NO pork will be allowed in my kitchen, and NO dull flavors! I have cooked for numerous events in the past 20 years, and have completely enjoyed each one! Menus and pricing shortly coming! (Jenna has been working on the menus…they look great! Thanks Jenna! Ps…..she just put up her new website so check it out! http://www.jennajulianne.com/ )
Collard Greens in our Kitchen
I brought home collard greens the other day. Our youngest, Lilly and Rose, were helping with the green drinks. They took some of the collard greens and dipped them in green drink and ate them. Lilly proclaimed “they taste like Salal!” ( a favorite green herb in our garden)..Rose started a capture the collard greens game in our kitchen. We had the Hungry Vegetarians protecting the collard greens and the Angry Meat Eaters (they came up with the names) trying to steal them! Boy….what goes on in our kitchen…… I finally got them all safe and sound back into the fridge.
Politics, Health, Opinions…..
Our family is WELL informed in almost all areas of government, religion, conspiracy theories, health theories and health conspiracies BUT we keep our thoughts out of the work place, for the most part. Unless it is of major importance, I will leave all the exciting discussions to other great people out there who have informative websites and who send educational emails and newsletters on politics and the sort. You can count on us to be informed, but do not count on receiving our political stand on too many things. We do encourage you to fight for freedoms, stand up for the freedoms our ancestors believed in and came to America for, and protect Mother Nature. We believe in being very pro active in the government and in all areas of life. Our thoughts are formed from our knowledge. So are your thoughts. That is why our tag line for Nature’s Garden is Nutrition and Education for a Healthier Lifestyle! If you ask me, I believe I know exactly how to help a body heal and operate at full capacity. I wish I could share with the world how to heal and feel alive again! So all we can do is educate…with disclaimers of course! And that is what we intend to do here. Educate and live by example.
New Year Goals:
Number one: provide you, our client with what you want in our store! So….TELL US! If we discontinue a product you love, let us know. Number two: open up the catering division and let it soar. Number three: Provide local, high quality food items at affordable prices. This needs volume to keep flowing…so bring keep spreading the news! Number four: figure out the best schedule for ZuZu’s so we can offer a dining experience on a regular schedule for those in our area. Requests and thoughts encouraged! Number five: Treat our customers as we would our family - Trust them, be loyal, offer our best and keep the spirit of Christmas here all year. One wise man told us that to keep the spirit of Christmas all we needed to do is drop the final consonant…..keep the spirit of Christ! So that’s the plan! Come on 2010, we are ready and willing to make it the best year ever! THANK YOU for joining us in that Quest!
Our juicing class has been moved to FRIDAY, JANUARY 8th….. TONIGHT! COME! GREAT tasty drinks and you get to hear from others besides ME on how wonderful juicing is for you…….
Salmon Patties!
YUM! Fresh Salmon Patties in the Freezer! NOTE: one batch of salmon patties were neglected…..the garlic and another spices was left on the counter! I do not believe we sold more than one or two packag4es, but we have the others on discount right now for 1.75 each! They still are yummy…but missing the garlic! Ask if interested…….the patties in the freezer are the mighty fine patties! (A new favorite in our home….we must admit….)
