<When I first met Jerry, he has successfully
organized a group of people in Easton New Jersey
to put a stop to the unnecessary destruction of
historic bridges over the Deleware River by
Pennsylvania state. At that time, as result of
research that he funded as an individual, he was
speaking nationally about the decline in
nutritional content of pasture grass and grocery
products since the first US studies in 1904. He
was also a frequent spokesman on pastured dairy
health at NOFA and related conferences and has
remained a champion of grass fed dairies. He was
a keynote speaker (on government interference in
the food system and what to do about it ) and he
will be a keynote speaker at Sally Fallon's
Weston A. Price conference this fall (on the
relationship between soil health and human
health). He's an inspiring man to listen to,
filled with well documented facts, great humor,
and an appreciation of the potential of the
American system of democratic government.
(Jerry's concept of 'potluck democracy' was the
inspiration for the "Local Food/Local Economy"
speakers series www.gardeningforthefuture.com) He
doesn't speak often in the Mid-Atlantic region. I
highly recommend that you make an effort to
attend his presentation this Wednesday in
Shepherdstown, WV. The regular press release
follows. -Allan Balliett>
Biological Consultant to Speak in Shepherdstown, WV on March 17
About five years ago, biological agriculture
consultant and livestock supplement formulator,
Jerry Brunetti received word that without
aggressive chemotherapy treatment he would be
dead in as little as 6 months from lymphoma. He
chose to not travel that route, and instead has
embarked on his own journey, seeking advice,
treatments, alternative protocols, and hands-on
care from a wide variety of sources. The result
has been depth of understanding of the role of
nutrition in human health that is almost beyond
compare, steady improvement in his own overall
health, and, as of January 2004, a doctor's
examination reveals NO ENLARGED LYMPTH NODES!
He�s still alive, inspite of the advice he'd been
given from the medical establishment.
"We've asked Jerry to expand upon the
remarkable speech on the subject of cancer,
natural treatments, and his own health that he
presented at the 2003 Acres U.S.A.
Eco-Agriculture Conference. His story emphasizes
the value of locally grown foods and will serve
as inspiration and education for anyone who is
touched by degenerative disease, either
themselves or in a friend or loved one,� said
Allan Balliett, Shepherdstown ecological farmer
and organizer of this event.
Jerry Brunetti is currently managing director of
Agri-Dynamics, a 25 year old company engaged in
ecological systems approaches to livestock, crop
and horticultural programs. Agri-Dynamics
produces ecological friendly pesticides and
bio-stimulants; natural feed additives and herbal
nutraceuticals for livestock, equine and pets;
and services including soil, tissue and water
testing with recommendations.
"Jerry Brunetti's approach is not limited to
specific remedies. He constantly emphasizes the
need to understand the similarities in the
biological dynamics of the entire farm - whether
in the rumen of the cow, the rhizosphere in the
soil or the digestion of organic waste, the
microbial life involved should be seen as part of
an integrated, complementary, holistic system.
It is upon this system that true human health is
based,� says Balliett.
Brunetti was also co-founder of Earthworks, a
company engaged since 1991 in instituting
biological practices in the golf course and
landscape industries. He was an animal science
major at North Carolina State University and ran
a cow/calf operation in Ritchie County, WV (near
Harrisville) for two years. He currently serves
on the steering committees of the Eastern PA
Chapter of the Weston A. Price Foundation, the
Lower Mt. Bethel Environmental Advisory Council,
and The Foodshed Alliance of the Ridge Valley.
Jerry is a regular speaker at numerous
sustainable agriculture and health conferences
throughout the USA and Australia. His
intellectual contribution to the grass-fed dairy
movement has been substantial.
There is no charge for this event, but, due to
limited seating, a reservation is necessary.
