We speak with Azure's Founder & CEO, organic food pioneer and farmer, David Stelzer, and our special guest, author and anti-GMO pioneer, Jeffrey Smith. We’ll be discussing GMOs - Genetically Modified Organisms. Jeffrey was at the recent Monsanto Glyphosate (Roundup) trial and shares with us some of the ways that Monsanto have used to cover up the truth about Glyphosate and Roundup. Jeffrey is the author of Seeds of Deception: Exposing Industry and Government Lies About the Safety of the Genetically Engineered Foods You're Eating, and Genetic Roulette: The Documented Health Risks of Genetically Engineered Foods. We’ll be discussing why you should be asking questions about GMOs in our food supply, and how you can be certain that you are buying non-GMO food. As an independent distributor of organic food we’ll learn how in 2001 Azure started to ask each of its suppliers about their own practices on GMO. We’ll also be asking some questions about the facts behind GMO and how some of the popular science behind GMO is not what it appears to be. So; GMOs in your food? Safe or scary? Scientifically proven or are we asking the wrong questions? Does transparency matter or is there a cover up? Join us on a discovery about GMOs and our food with Azure Standard. You can listen to our podcasts at our website at azurestandard.com where you can shop for the best quality organic, non-GMO produce and products and have them delivered direct to your door. And at our blog you can also find articles, recipes, updates and great information and resources to help you and your family live a healthier, happier and more abundant life.

David Stelzer, organic farmer and CEO of Azure Standard, speaks about wheat. Is wheat the staff of life or should you cut it completely out of your diet? With an increasing awareness of gluten intolerance and diets like the Paleo diet gain increasing prominence has wheat had its day as people favor diets without grains in them? Join us on a discovery about wheat.

I recently learned of the plight of Azure Farm in Oregon, from articles by Mike Adams, founder of Natural News. County officials had apparently decided that the mechanical weed control that has been the practice of Azure Farm for many years was no longer acceptable, and that the 2000 acre organic grower had to accept forced spraying of all their acreage with highly toxic herbicides, that would effectively destroy their business and poison the land for many years to come. Azure Farms and Azure Standard, one of the largest organic distribution companies in America, both founded and owned by David Stelzer, needed help from their customers and friends. Thanks to the marketing and social media expertise of David Cross, Marketing Director of Azure Standard, the word went out, and other important real news outlets like Natural News also made a big difference, sending an emergency call to friends of organic farming and healthy living everywhere. Sherman County officials received over 57,000 emails letting them know what a bad idea spraying an organic farm would be, and they appear to be reconsidering their action now and offering better options. As I am sure our listeners understand, this issue goes far beyond just some local tyrants in Sherman County, it is a microcosm of the bigger question, will chemical agriculture be able to partner with local, state and federal government to eradicate organic farming in America. That is an issue of immediate and massive importance to each one of us and to generations to come. I wanted to provide Lost Arts Radio listeners with an inside view of the real situation at Azure Farms, the latest developments with the county government, and what those in charge of the farm would like us to do, to support them, in appreciation of the great health service they are providing for America.

You have probably not yet heard of Glyphosate... the active ingredient in the herbicide Roundup. Roundup was developed to kill the plant it is sprayed on, like weeds. GMO crops are specifically engineered to withstand being sprayed with round up..they are 'Roundup ready'... Obesity, depression, autoimmune disorders, cancers, gluten sensitivity, diabetes, endocrine disruption, autism, chronic illness, neurodegenerative diseases.... the list is so very long...what's happening AND why are we experiencing a huge growth in such a large variety of illnesses ? Especially chronic illnesses Almost everyone has some knowledge of GMO's but hardly anyone knows that Roundup/glyphosate is now sprayed on the majority of conventionally grown grains in North america. It's also used as a supposedly safe weedkiller by cities and households across North America. This podcast episode is dedicated to understanding how glyphosate is affecting the environment, farm animals and humans from the perspectives of a well researched, experienced organic farmer and a well researched, experienced functional medicine doctor. You'll find fascinating cutting edge information that will help you make informed choices in your nutrition and health care. We'll begin with how the soil and grains are affected and how they have changed over the last 50/60 years... Here is a link to a map of the USA that cycles through 1992 to 2012 showing how the use of Glyphosate has increased over these 20 years Glyphosate map USA Part 1 with David Stelzer, founder and CEO of Azure Standard David Stelzer is a pioneer of healthy soils and organic foods. His family has farmed in the Pacific Northwest for over 100 years. He is the founder and CEO of Azure Standard, a leading producer and nationwide distributor of natural, organic, and non-GMO food. David first started farming organically as a teenager in the 1970s, and his passion for providing nourishing, healthful foods grown in healthy soil without the use of harmful chemicals has only continued to grow. At age 20 he started selling the grain grown on the family farm to areas across the Pacific Northwest -- from the back of his old pickup truck. In 1987, this successful adventure grew into Azure Standard to provide not only the grain he grew but other produce, dried and bulk foods, and health products requested by his growing base of customers. David and Azure went on to create a unique delivery method of community Drops that evolved organically into an independent organic food distribution network which now covers 38 states – including Hawaii and Alaska – with over 4,000 community Drops in local communities. Azure also ships by parcel carrier so all areas of the country can get high quality foods at reasonable prices. As Azure has grown over the years David continues to pioneer new methods of growing and producing food. This includes Azure’s Unifine grain milling capabilities, along with value-added products and expanded distribution using direct-to-consumer marketing. Throughout this growth, David continues his focus on helping people find health and wellness through the produce and products Azure offers, and by growing nutrient-rich foods in healthy soil on the thriving Azure Farm. David passionately believes in supporting small and family-owned farms, suppliers, and businesses. He always advocates for healthy and abundant living while aspiring to remain on the forward edge in providing truly healthful food to a world hungry for quality ingredients grown using fair and sustainable farming methods. David is happily married for over 30 years. He and his wife and their 11 children continue the family tradition of working the farm together.
