Natural Awakenings Greater Boston - Rhode Island

Connect with the Farming Community at Local Fundraiser

NOTE: This event has been postponed until October 6, 2024.

The nonprofit Rhode Island chapter of the Weston A. Price Foundation will present a major fundraising event that showcases the connection of our communities with area farms, farm owners, healthy food, herbs, agriculture and more beginning at 11:30 a.m. on August 25, 2024, at Pasquale Farms, in Richmond, Rhode Island. Organized by the Nature of Education Schoolhouse Farm, the event will also feature expert speakers, other related nonprofits as well as vendors.

The Foundation works to restore nutrient-dense foods to our diets through education, research and activism, and supports movements that contribute to this objective including accurate nutrition instruction, organic and biodynamic farming, pasture-feeding of livestock, community-supported farms, honest and informative labeling, prepared parenting and nurturing therapies.

Specific goals include establishment of universal access to clean, certified raw milk and a ban on the use of soy formula for infants. The Foundation seeks to conduct research to test the nutrient content of foods, particularly butter produced under various conditions and the “X” Factor, discovered by Dr. Price; and to determine the effects of traditional preparation methods on nutrient content and availability in whole foods.

Free admission, donations requested. Location: 421 Kingstown Rd., Richmond, RI. For more information and vendor inquiries, call chapter lead Aimee Gardiner at 401-777-7073 or visit
