April Artist Patricia Foxx


Our monthly art openings have been a huge success. We invite a local artist once a month to hang their artwork on our walls. Many of you know that we have a thriving artists community in our valley. The talent and the artists are what make this wonderful community. But you don't have to be an artist to enjoy. In fact we encourage as many of you as possible to come view the monthly art, even if you're not eating here.

Please join us on Sunday, April 11 for complementarity small bites for the opening reception. We provide our wonderful food at the bar for no cost from 1 to 3 PM. You'll have a chance to meet Artist Patricia Foxx and other local artists. This is a wonderful event that we encourage everyone to attend.

My love of nature and the gift of artistic expression I received from my father are the impetus for my watercolors.

Waiter, There Is Toxic Sludge in My Organic Soup!

Fifteen years ago, the Center for Media and Democracy in my book Toxic Sludge Is Good for You first exposed the deceptive PR campaign by the municipal sewage industry that has renamed toxic sewage sludge as "biosolids" to be spread on farms and gardens. Unfortunately, the scam continues to fool more people than ever, even in San Francisco which is often dubbed the country's greenest city.

I suspect that Bay area celebrity chef Alice Waters would never dump sewage sludge onto her own organic garden, nor serve food grown in sludge in her world famous natural foods restaurant Chez Panisse. The mission of her Chez Panisse Foundation is to create "edible schoolyards" where kids grow, prepare, and eat food from their own organic gardens. But Francesca Vietor, the new executive director of the Chez Panisse Foundation, is at the same time actively promoting dumping toxic sludge on gardens in her role as Vice President of the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission.

SFPUC has been deceptively bagging toxic sewage sludge as 'organic compost' and giving it away to unsuspecting gardeners, people to whom the word 'organic' connotes the highest level of pure, toxin-free food production. On March 4, 2010, the Organic Consumers Association and dozens of San Francisco community groups protested at the mayor's office causing the city to put its sludge "compost" giveaway on hold, but only temporarily. Meanwhile, the city's Public Utilities Commission, with Francesca Vietor as Vice President, continues to defend and promote the practice of growing food in toxic sewage sludge.
