Promoting Breast Health on a Daily Basis with Katherine Krumwiede on Wednesday, October 4

There is no shortage of fundraisers in October bearing the symbol of breast cancer, the pink ribbon, from pink KitchenAids to pink Victorinox 7-function classic knives. But not enough is being done to prevent breast disease.

Genetics aside, there is plenty that can be done to promote breast health. Come learn about the many things that adversely affect your breast health plus the many powerful strategies to keep your breasts healthy. Great handouts included.

Special Announcement:

Dear NCHG members,
My boyfriend is a metalworker based in St. Paul and he's making a small batch of high quality tincture presses to sell to other members of the herbal community.
The presses will be 3" diameter x 3.5" tall, about 4 oz.- 8 oz. capacity, and the components are all food-grade stainless steel. The price is $100 and the presses will be ready by the end of January. Below are photos and video of the first prototype — the final version will have a few modifications including a welded top piece and a squatter shape. Please let me know if you might be interested in purchasing one, or if you have any questions — you can reach me at saracelia@gmail.com.

Thanks! Sara Nelson,
NCHG member
