Gluten Free Organic Gourmet At The Chaco Canyon Café Feb 09, 2011

Show notes

Let’s face it, if you have food sensitivities, it can be a nightmare to dine out because of the high risk of trusting restaurants and other dining establishments with the purity of your food. The sheer possibility of ingesting one tiny ingredient that accidentally may not be mentioned while describing a particular entrée or side could result in a reaction that can render you sick for the rest of the day or even worse, the course of the next few days. When restaurateur, Chris Maykut decided to open his first café in Seattle, he wanted the experience to be a core joy of life which is to EAT and enjoy food. Based from the outset on an ethic of organic produce, waste-reduction, and unique cuisine, he created his Chaco Canyon’s identity as he grew. Carved into a tiny below-sidewalk space that had no business being a cafe, they steadily grew from the occasional customer to bursting at the seams after 3 years. Is it possible to create a successful business that caters to a very select group? What makes his customers drive to his café from far distances just to buy a loaf of his gluten free bread? Can a business actually be profitable, sustainable and support organic in a very weak economy? In this segment of The Organic View Radio Show, host, June Stoyer will speak to entrepreneur and restaurateur, Chris Maykut to discuss the business side of feeding people organically, with plant based and gluten free foods that will satisfy the most selective carnivore!

Dr. Henk A. Tennekes: The Catastrophic Effects of Neonicotinoids on Insects And Birds. Feb 08, 2011

Show notes

Dr. Henk Tennekes has been involved with cancer research for most of his career. His work regarding bees began after reading an official report to the Dutch Minister of Agriculture on the decline of bees. He was amazed at the lack of information on insecticides as a possible factor in the bee decline. Dr. Tennekes then began to research the impact of neonicotinoid insecticides such as imidacloprid and clothianidin. He discovered that they were identical to those of genotoxic carcinogens. These chemicals are not only affecting the honeybees but other species that are not closely monitored such as butterflies and other insects. He began to study the food habits of declining bird species and discovered that they depended on invertebrates. Dr. Tennekes is convinced that there is a link between the use of neonics and the decline of insects and birds. Some countries such as Germany have already banned the use of these chemicals. However, if these applications are not banned, there will be an impending environmental catastrophe that is irreversible. In this segment of The Organic View Radio Show, host, June Stoyer will speak to esteemed Toxicologist and author, Dr. Henk Tennekes, about his research and discuss this monumental devastation that will affect us on a global scale. Stay tuned!

Tom Theobald: The Fatal Sting of Clothianidin On Honeybees Feb 07, 2011

Show notes

Honeybees pollinate ¾ of all of our agricultural food as well as other important crops such as cotton that are used for textiles. Without them, life as we know it would cease to exist. Any fatal impact on the honeybee would create a monumental disaster. Clothianidin has been widely used as a seed treatment on many of the USA’s key crops (which include canola, soy, sunflowers, wheat and sugar beet crops) for eight growing seasons under a conditional registration granted while EPA waited for Bayer Crop Science, the pesticide’s maker, to conduct a field study assessing the insecticide’s threat to bee colony health. The EPA has moved from granting a conditional registration to full registration of this chemical just in time for the spring planting. Clothianidin is of the neonicotinoid family of systemic pesticides, which are taken up by a plant’s vascular system and expressed through pollen, nectar and gutation droplets from which bees then forage and drink. Scientists are concerned about the mix and cumulative effects of the multiple pesticides bees are exposed to in these ways. Neonicotinoids are of particular concern because they have cumulative, sublethal effects on insect pollinators that correspond to CCD symptoms – namely, neurobehavioral and immune system disruptions. In this segment of The Organic View Radio Show, host, June Stoyer will speak to Tom Theobald, Master Beekeeper, President and founding board member of the Boulder County Beekeepers' Association about the impact of this devastation chemical. Stay tuned!

Stellar Organic: The Art of Producing the 1st Organic, Fair Trade and Sulphur Free Wine in Africa Feb 04, 2011

Show notes

People assume that the finest wines in the world are produce with very strict standards for purity. That is not the case as the demand for sulphur free wines has exploded, especially in the organic wine industry. In the organic debate, the USA reserves the label of organic wine for wine made from organically grown grapes and without any added SO2 and where the SO2 level is below 10ppm. The majority of wines made from organically grown grapes have added SO2 but are referred to as organic wines. The majority of organic consumers are under the impression that organic wines contain no preservatives and are surprised to discover that this is not generally the case. Stellar receives constant queries from the public regarding the availability of SO2 free wines. Producing an SO2 free wine allows us to recapture the credibility in organic wines while at the same time giving our customers what they want. On the winemaking side the flavors are cleaner and more transparent. In red wines the colors are often better. SO2 can bleach color. Stellar Organic is South Africa’s largest producer of organic Fair Trade Certified™ wine. Each year, close to 2 million bottles are produced for the local market and export destinations in Europe, the UK, USA, Canada and Asia. Stellar has been an innovator in the wine industry and has really set the standard for organic wines by becoming the first organic winemaking operation. Well-known for its organic certification and Fair Trade certification, Stellar changed the wine industry standard by becoming the first cellar in Africa to produce commercially viable, no-sulphur added wines. Their wines have won numerous awards over the years in both national and international competitions, proving that organic Fair Trade wines can more than measure up to their conventional counterparts in quality. In this segment of The Organic View Radio Show, host, June Stoyer will speak to Jeremy Shapley, CEO of Stellar Organics. Stay tuned!
