An entrepreneur is anowner or manager ofa business enterprise
who makes money
through risk and initia-tive. The term was origi-nally first defined by theIrish-French economistRichard Cantillon.
Entrepreneur is a termapplied to a person who is
willing to help launch anew venture or enterpriseand accept full responsi-bility for the outcome.
Jean-Baptiste Say, aFrench economist, is
believed to have coinedthe word entrepreneurin the 19th Century. Hedefined an entrepreneuras one who undertakesan enterprise, especially acontractor, acting asintermediately betweencapital and labor
With the unemploy-ment rates the way theyare, we need to look atother options in self suffi-ciency. I believe there is apower that lies within us
all to change and adapt intimes of need. Let the sur-vival instinct wake up andcome alive.
In todays weak jobmarket, one in two col-lege graduates are joblessor underemployed.
Many folks over 40 whohave been laid off due toemployment cutbacks,company closings and thepoor economy wonder
what they can do to makea living.
The answer for manymight be to get into acommission-based busi-ness. This is a businessthat you can control theoutcome. These types ofenterprises exist in manyfacets of our economy.
Careers in sales, market-ing, insurance real estate,rare items, handymanand so forth are worth
considering.For many years, theeducation system hastaught us and our chil-dren to get a job and workfor someone. It could bethe major corporations,the government or smallbusinesses in our veryown community. Mostschools teach us to spe-cialize in one thing.
The idea of this article is
to see ourselves empowerour own lives and engagethe self-reliant spirit andmake things happen forourselves.
The good news is thatthere are many types ofestablished companiesthat will train an entrepre-neurial individual and actas your partner in yourcareer.
Enterprises that teachthese skills that lead toincome are looking for
good people who willserve their customers forthe benefit of all. A happycustomer is a return cus-
tomer.These skills will help aperson in any endeavorthey may ultimatelychoose when the econo-my comes back in fullforce. In the current econ-omy, I believe there isgreater opportunity forpeople who are willing todevelop their work ethicthan ever. There willalways be a need for
thinkers, doers and lead-ers.
We all know that thereare certain undeniablelaws of cause and effect. If
you do proactive activitieson a regular basis, theeffects will be measura-ble. I.e., if you spend moremoney than you have onan ongoing basis, you gobroke. If you have a goodproduct at good prices,give good service and stayin touch, you make mon-
ey and are happy.These principals work
in any economy. Findsomething you love to do
and do it with passion.Learn everything you canabout it, tell people what
you have and ask for busi-ness.
The Internet is a greatresource for learningabout starting a business.
With the advent of theInternet, online business-es are probably the easiest
way to start and verymuch less expensive in
terms of start-up costthan an offline counter-part.
You can also think oftrading on eBay or over-stock.
A franchise is also agood option if you dont
want to start from scratch. Dont be afraid to
experiment with prices. A franchise is a great
idea although the start-upcapital is way too high formost people.
Find a direct sellingcompany that will provide
you the training and sup-port. Also, find a personal
mentor that you can trust. Most direct sellingcompanies have low startup capital compared to atraditional brick and mor-tar business. You can alsobreak even rather quicklycompared to the tradi-tional business.
America has alwaysbeen considered the landof opportunity and Ibelieve it still is. If you
dont have a job, considercreating your own andalong the way you justmight create opportuni-ties for others as well.Good luck!

Awash in clutter? Too
much paperwork on yourdesk, end table or hidingin various drawersthroughout your home orapartment? And, for howmany years have youbeen determined to, onceand for all, get organized?
Start nowThis time of year is a
good time to start. As youare fresh from your April
17, 2012 encounter withthe Internal RevenueService and the CaliforniaFranchise Tax Board, youshould remember wellthe mountain of paper-
work you built to justify
your income and expens-es on your tax returns for2011.
Filed for an extension?Well, youve just post-poned the inevitable. And
you still face the processto assemble the paper-
work required to file.If you use the shoebox
filing system, you andyour tax preparer knowthe angst and anxiety
associated with thisannual document-gath-ering and tax-payingeffort.
Why not end the ran-dom filing that turns your
documents into clutter?
Resolve quickly that thiswill be the year you getorganized.
Organizing worksfor everyone
Dispense with thenotion that you need tobe wealthy to derive ben-efit from good organiza-tion. If you earn incomefrom any source and youtake care of yourself and a
few others, you need toplan. And you need to letothers know how thatplan works and where thepapers that support it arelocated.
If you are the primaryrecord-keeper and bill-payer in the home, con-
sider your family first.Although we do not favor-ably consider an untimelydemise, it happens. Weare not immortal. Wehave accidents, get sick,become infirm, and indoing so, lose some or allof our capacity to care forour families.
It is just not fair toexpect them to begin car-ing for you while simulta-
neously looking for therecords to pay the bills,file the taxes and so on.
And, if you are a care-giver for someone else,have them help you
assemble an organizingplan while they still havetheir wits about them. As
one who has been anestate executor, I can tes-tify that good records andclear instructions areessential. Begin now todetermine your familymember or friends per-sonal wishes and gatherthe financial informationand legal paperworkneeded to handle theiraffairs, now and whenthey pass on.
Parents and youngadults also have com-pelling reasons to developgood organization habitsto understand and keeptrack of important
records. Not only do youneed them for taxes, youllneed them when you buy
a home or homes. Andyou need them as youprovide the familys dailybread and butter. Anadded benefit is your per-sonal peace of mind plusthe positive training andexample you provide for
your heirs.
Help is availableNumerous books, soft-
ware and other reference
works are available onlineand in stores to help youalong. So, to get you start-ed, here are a few tips onhow to begin your per-sonal de-cluttering.

First, gather your docu-ments and include thefollowing:
Will
Power of attorney Trust documents Birth certificates Copies of social secu-
rity cards Marriage certificate Divorce papers Passports Military discharge or
retirement orders Medical directives.Now youre ready to
update the other papers
you use in your dailyfinancial lives.
These include up-to-date copies of the follow-ing:
Bank statements
Insurance contractsand policies
Investment accountstatements
Pension, profit sharingor 401(k) statements Prior year tax returns
Secure the papers;share the info
Next, locate a secureplace to store your docu-ments. A safe deposit box
works for items you donot need on a daily basissuch as legal documents,birth and marriage certifi-
cates and the like.For those items you use
more often, a fire-proofsafe may meet your needbut any secure location isacceptable.
If you use a safe-depositbox, make sure yourauthorization cards arecurrent and include all
who might need access.Check with the bank fortheir policies regardingaccess upon your deathor impairment.
Finally, ensure that yourspouse, domestic partneror other family membersknow where to find all thedocuments.
Loose-leaf binders withindexed tabs are useful infiling the documents
youve gathered. If youfeel comfortable withelectronic storage, digitiz-ing records is an emergingtrend. Computer-savvyrecord keepers can find
single copy scanners aswell as those that handlemultiple documentcopies.With the record-
gathering and tax-filingseason a recent memory,make a firm commitmentto de-clutter your life andorganize your personalpapers to minimize yourday-to-day financial anxi-ety and plan for thefuture.

Before we get into theexciting events andbusiness promotion-
al opportunities the Lin-
coln Area Chamber ofCommerce is hosting thismonth, Id like to update
you on the results of oneof the boards 2012 strate-gic initiatives.
As part of a memberoutreach plan, the cham-bers Executive DirectorBob Romness and I visit-ed the Chambers Top 25businesses, based on thenumber of employees, to
better understand theirchallenges, insights andthe impact this economyis having on their busi-ness. Clearly, their successimpacts our entire com-munitys economic envi-ronment.
Bob and I are trulygrateful for the time andcandor these businessleaders shared with us.
On a personal note, Icount this outreachassignment as one of themost rewarding and pro-ductive experiences in my
many years serving on thechamber board.
Lincoln is headquartersfor businesses engaged inthe full spectrum ofnational and internation-al economies. The opti-mism they expressed
regarding the potential forfuture expansion andeconomic success wasvery encouraging.
Yes, there were someexpression of flat rev-enues but the commonmessage from these busi-ness leaders was the
importance of an eco-nomic development strat-egy to advance local busi-ness.
Bob and I will planmeetings with our medi-um and small businessleaders and owners to
compare their challenges,needs, and insights with
what we have justlearned. I look forward tothat exchange and tosharing this valuableinformation with you.
In the meantime, yourchamber is busy prepar-
ing for the ShoppersExpo on May 26 at Lin-coln Crossing Market-place. This years event

Get ready for springstorms, and checkfor insurance dis-
counts, tooIf youre like mostAmericans, your home isyour single greatestinvestment. Protecting itfrom severe weatherdamage makes sense interms of finances and thesafety of your family.
And, some stormpreparations also couldhelp lower your home-owners insurance.
Here are a few steps totake before a stormapproaches to helpreduce damage, avoid an
insurance claim and, insome cases, possibly saveon your homeownersinsurance:
Regularly examineyour roof and replace loseshingles, tiles and slate. If
your roof is more than 20
years old, you may wantto have it inspected.Replacing your roof maysave you money on your
homeowners insurance. Move any loose items
from your yard that can
become flying debris.Grills, patio furniture,bicycles, planters,garbage cans, etc. shouldbe relocated to yourgarage or inside yourhome. If it cant be moved,strap it down.
Check that doors andsliding glass doors aresecure. Not only will youhelp ensure that doorsstay closed tight in a
heavy wind, but simplyhaving a solid exteriordoor and secondary lockson sliding doors may earn
you a discount on yourinsurance.
Know how and be pre-
pared to turn off the pow-er and water in the eventof a storm to avoid voltageirregularities, which candamage your computer,TV and other electricalappliances.
Keep trees and shrubsaround your home welltrimmed. Remove dam-aged or dead limbs, espe-cially those over yourhome.
Make sure gutters areproperly secured and freeof debris that can preventproper drainage.
Keep importantpapers, including insur-ance documents, deeds
and titles, in a safe orwaterproof container thatyou can grab quickly incase you need to evacu-ate.
While theres no way topredict exactly whensevere weather will strike,taking these simple stepscan help to minimize itsimpact and damage andmaybe even save youmoney on repairs.
Your homeowners orrenters insurance maycover some of the above ifproblems are due to natu-
ral disaster or catastroph-ic failure, so check with
your insurance agent to
see which coverage is bestfor you.If you have any ques-

When the new yearrolls around,
thoughts turn tolosing weight or exercis-ing more. But author Ali-cia Funk has embarkedon a different journey.
My challenge was toeat something wild everyday or use it for health to show it can be doneand that it is fun and
worth doing, she said.Funk, author of Living
Wild Gardening, Cook-
ing and Healing withNative Plants of the SierraNevada, has researchedand worked with manyplants native to the regionand incorporates theminto her familys diet andheath. But putting themon the menu daily wastaking it to the next lev-el.
To me, that means try-ing to really live that way
live close to our locallandscape on a daily
basis, she said. Manypeople find it overwhelm-ing to get started or haveforgotten that we have
abundant resources ofnative edible food in ourbackyards and aroundus.
Shes recording herprogress in a daily blog ather website livingwild.orgto encourage others who
want to follow her exam-ple.
Im looking to ourcommunity to come up
with new recipes and
send me new recipes, shesaid. Im hoping we can
work together to learnhow to live sustainably inthe landscape.
Funks husband andchildrens reaction to the
year-long project hasbeen very supportive.
My husband loves it,she said. He tries every-thing I make. My daugh-ter, 13, has come to appre-
ciate my recipes. Sheactually says she prefers
my oak nut marzipan andoak nut bliss bars to thecookies she can get at thestore.
She also appreciates hermoms home remedy forcolds a tea made fromnative plants.
It is a combination ofyerba santa an abun-dant native plant (locally) Oregon grapefruit andelderberry syrup, Funksaid. That is the regularthing when shes comingdown with a cold, and

to it, she drinks it.The familys daily bev-
erage of choice is man-zanita cider.
Some of our nativeberries manzanita,madrone and elderberry have more than threetimes the amount ofantioxidants than blue-berries and pomegran-ates, Funk said. Here
we have something that isa really wonderful sourceof health and it is in abun-dance in our local land-scape and it tastes deli-cious.
Even her 4-year-olddrinks it, she said.
To make the tea, Funktakes the leftover skinsand seeds from makingmanzanita sugar andboils them for 20 minutes,then strains them.
You only need abouttwo cups of leftover skinsand seeds to 12 cups of
water, she said. If youwant to add Vitamin C,add Douglas fir tips. Theyare high in Vitamin C.
Spring is harvesttime for fir tips
They turn a brightgreen, Funk said. Youcan just gently pull thoseoff the fir tree. If you wantto add those, add it whilethe cider is steeping andlet it steep for 10 minutesmore. ... Keep it in a jar in
the fridge.Knowing what and
when to harvest nativeplants is important.
Each season offersnew varieties of edibleplants, Funk said. Theycan be used fresh or dried
for use later. The fun partis to go outside and col-lect the plants because itoffers an opportunity todevelop a deeper rela-tionship with our locallandscape.
Spring brings a bountyof selections includingmugwort.
It is our wonderfullocal insect repellent, shesaid. So after the rains,
what comes next? Mos-quitoes.
The preparation is sim-ple, she explained. Gatherenough mugwort to fill a
Mason jar. Cover it withboiling water and let itseep overnight. Thenstrain it into a spray bottleand it is ready to use.
It grows along trailsand roadsides, she said.It tends to be in sunnyareas and it is in mass.
Miners lettuce is
another spring treat.It is an abundant
native weed that is deli-cious and filled with vita-mins and minerals, shesaid. And it is available to
you before you can growyour garden lettuce.
Something nice aboutwild edibles is they are anice complement to what
you can grow in the gar-den.
Another spring favoriteis red bud blossoms,
which are also good insalads.
They are starting to
bloom right now, shesaid.
Although Funk doesenjoy getting out into the
wild with her family, heremphasis is on cultivatingedible native plants in thehome garden.
Any time you are outcollecting some from the
wild, you have to be 100percent sure of the identi-fication of the plant, she
said. If you arent certain,then dont collect it.
Visiting a native plantdemonstration garden is agood way to learn how torecognize the edible ones.
For those who want toget started, she suggestspicking one native plantper season.
Try it in differentrecipes and find different
ways to use it and storeit, she said. So you reallypay attention to whatsavailable each season.
Funk is working on anupdated edition of herbook, to be publishednext year. She also speaksto local organizations andis leading a walk at theSacramento HistoricCemetery on April 21.
The California Native
Plant Society has turned itinto a native plantdemonstration garden,
she said.Funks quest is an
important part of thewhole picture of eatinglocal, according to JulieBecker, California NativePlant Society memberand communicationsdirector for Flicker Press.
It is interesting to for-
age for food, but whatexcites me is eating localand supporting our localagriculture, she said. Ithink all of this is buildingawareness for the naturalenvironment and build-ing on what we have. Inthat sense, I appreciatethat on a large scale andtry to think about what Ibuy and where I shop. Itsnot just about food, but
supporting the localeconomy. It all goestogether.

There is something I feeleverybody should do plant a vegetable garden.
Growing your own veggies istruly the first step toward a
healthylifestyle.
Not onlyis garden-ing a good
way to burncalories butgrowing
your ownveggies
means you
get to enjoyvegetablesthat are fresher, riper, healthierand cheaper!
If you have never planted onebefore, then you should reallydo yourself a favor and give it atry. You will eat healthier, more
nutritious veggies and savemoney too.
For some reason, the firstthing most individuals think is,I cant grow anything. I killeverything. However, you willbe surprised at how easy grow-ing a veggie garden can actuallybe. You dont have to be afarmer to grow super tasty veg-etables and you dont have tohave a huge backyard. You cangrow veggies even if you live inan apartment.
The first and most importantstep is the soil. If you are plant-
ing right in the ground, thenyou need to add lots of organicmaterial (like compost, steermanure or humus). You shouldmeasure out an area in your
yard and then turn the soil mix-ing in your compost.
One of the best ways to do a
veggie garden is in a raised bed.You dont have to have a hugeraised bed to grow lots of yum-my veggies. Even a bed that is 4feet by 4 feet will provide adecent amount of your favoritevegetables. I prefer raised bedsbecause it is much easier to getgreat nutrient rich soil in araised bed.
Once your bed is built, thenfill it with a good planting mix,and then before every plantingseason, add a new layer of com-post.
The second step is deciding
what to plant in your new veg-etable bed. Tomatoes, squash,cucumber and melons aresome of the easiest to grow andusually are very prolific.
If this is the first time youhave planted a garden, then it is
wise to start small and grow a
few of your favorites. Dont tryand grow one of every vegetable
you see at the nursery. Startsmall and grow into a biggergarden as your success allows.
The third step is going to bemaintenance. Throughout thegrowing season, you will needto watch for bugs and otherpests.
There are lots of organic pestcontrols you can use in yourveggie beds. Most veggies areheavy feeders, which meansthey will do better and growbigger with fertilizer. Again,
there are lots of great organicfertilizers that can be appliedduring the growing season that
will help make the plantshealthier and more vigorous.
Most gardeners give theirvegetable gardens too much
water. You need to allow your
plants to dry out betweenwatering. Dont water when thesoil is wet to the touch. The best
way to tell if you need to wateris dig down about 6 inches and,if the soil is wet, dont water.
Growing your own veggies isfun and truly can be rewarding.Once you get the hang of it, trycanning or preserving some ofthe veggies you grew so you canenjoy garden grown veggies all
year long.Also, if you feel like being
adventurous, try composting.You can put all your green waste
in your compost pile and thenuse your compost in your veg-gie bed next season to helpenrich the soil. Its a win-win.

Buying distressed resi-dential real estate forinvestment can be a
path to financial securityand a way to help familybut it takes firm commit-ment to see the dealthrough.
It requires money forthe down payment, somefunds and plans for therepairs, knowledge of thereal property purchasingprocess and a heavy doseof patience.
So, if you have consid-ered getting into therental real estate businessby purchasing distressedreal estate at what youbelieve will be a discount,read on.
Im going to relate a
personal tale involvingbuying a bank-ownedproperty in CitrusHeights.
Full disclosure: Im alicensed real estate broker
who, although no longeractive in the business of
representing buyers andsellers, has remained cur-rent in real estate markettrends and issues over the
years because theyre animportant part of theoverall personal financeenvironment.
The local real estateworld is changing
Area home foreclosuresare down, according toseveral real estate sourcescommenting on trends inthe Placer, El Dorado, Yoloand Sacramento counties,apparently ending a cyclethat began several yearsago with a wave of fore-closures, followed bynumerous bank-ownedproperties oftenknown as REOs or RealEstate Owned that inturn led to short sales and
depressed housing prices.Many of those REOs arenow being sold toinvestors at distressedprices but those pricesmay be increasing.
Taking the plunge;signing the contract
Against that backdrop, Ibecame interested in adistressed single familyhome and I arranged forcloser inspection.
Although the neighbor-hood and the houseseemed sturdy, that couldnot be said for the housesappearance. Wood rot inan exterior wall and aninterior wall that showedsigns of water damage
were clear signs of neg-lect. One bathroom was
not working, althoughanother could be used.The rear yard contained along-unused hot tub,decaying fences and grassthat had not felt a mow-ers blades in months.
But, on closer inspec-
tion, the bones of thehouse appeared fine. Thecomposition shingle rooflooked good and the cool-ing compressor on theroof appeared intact. Oth-er positive featuresincluded a stable-appear-ing neighborhood andadequate parking con-cealed from the street forthe prospective tenantsvehicles.
The property wasowned by a major bank,
which insisted that anypurchase offer be accom-
panied by a pre-qualifica-tion letter from that samebank. Of course, the bankcant insist that a buyerfinance the purchasethrough that bank - that
would be illegal - but theycan insist on the letterthat states the prospectivebuyer is financially quali-fied to purchase the prop-erty.
I spent the better part of
one day and part of
another finding a bankrepresentative and con-vincing him to take myinformation for the pre-qualification letter.Numerous calls wereplaced to a variety of bankdepartments before find-ing one willing to performthe credit checks andissue the letter.
With letter in hand, Icompleted a purchaseoffer contract on March24.
The seller counteredthe offer on conditions,
not price, and we had adeal by April 4. As of presstime, that process contin-ues, although now wehave an anticipated clos-ing during the first weekof May.
Professionals arewidely separated
Complicating analready complex process,
we have players in loca-
tions from Arizona to

Southern California toRocklin to Lincoln. First
we have the title andescrow company that weagreed would be one inPasadena. The seller dis-closed that they had afinancial interest in thiscompany, and if weagreed to use it, they
would pay for the titleinsurance. We agreed,knowing that documents
would be faxed or e-mailed.
So the seller is a majorbank with multiple officesthroughout the U.S. TheirREO office is in Arizona.The sellers agent works
out of a real estate officein Rocklin. And me, thebuyer, lives in Lincoln.The bank handling thefinancing has several localoffices. The Internet andtelephone lines would geta workout among thiscast.
The loan processBecause this is invest-
ment property that would
not be occupied by theowners non-owneroccupied in real estatetrade jargon fundsrequired for the downpayment would be in the20 to 35 percent range.
Although thats higherthan what is generallyrequired for owner-occu-pied homes, it is a currentbanking industry stan-dard. I spoke with severallocal lenders to verify this.
Loan application canbe surprisingly quickalthough one will needseveral documents to ver-ify income, long-termdebt and general financialstability.
Often, tax documentsfor the past two years willbe required.
The loan product for
this will be a five-yearadjustable rate loan.Although Im not a fan ofthese products for the
average homeowner too many unknownsbeyond the initial lendingperiod they can be use-ful for the investor seek-ing to hold the propertyfor no longer than three-to five years, whichapplies in our situation.

by a whole house inspec-tor and a heating and airconditioning contractoras quickly as possible. Thesellers agent provided me
with a pest inspectionreport. That report cou-pled with my personalinspection of the property
was confirmed by thewhole house inspector.Fortunately, the HVACsystem was in pretty good
shape, requiring a littleless than $500, after closeof escrow of course, to putit in top-notch working
order.As both buyer and
agent for the buyer, Ioccasionally receiveddouble the paperworkload. But that turned outto be an advantage.Rather than having anintermediary agent to gothrough, I received papersto sign and could turnthem around almostimmediately, thus easingthe escrow process and, Ithought, saving time.
Alas, I had not countedon the appraisal and thetime lag in schedulingand conducting one plusissuing the report. And
then after the report isprovided, an additional 48to 72 hours is needed forthe loan underwriters tocomplete their work.
Use only the bestprofessionals
As I review this process,I expect it will takeapproximately seven
weeks to complete. Fortu-nately, I have been work-
ing with extremely com-petent financial profes-sionals including the sell-ers broker, my loan offi-cer and the escrow com-pany in Pasadena. Com-petent and reliable pro-fessionals make all thedifference.
Our plans for the houseincluding fixing it up andrenting it on a lease-pur-chase or lease-optionagreement to a familymember. By our agree-ment, the new tenant willdo most of the work.
This scenario can workwell in a number ofinvestor-driven real estatetransactions and it pays toselect reliable real estateand financial profession-als to aid in selectingproperties and arranging
your financing. Identifyyour target property care-fully and select only those
with solid structures.
Lessons to belearned
Finally, maintain yourcool and be realisticabout timelines. The cur-rent investment realestate market is chaotic
with investors; brokersand lenders are often
overwhelmed.One real estate profes-
sional recently told methat she received 12 offerson a property in less thanfive days and six offers
were for cash.These are all good signs.
Positive activity is return-
ing to the market andbuying and rental activityis brisk. We still haveunderwater propertyowners. But we see signsof progress and improve-ment. And thats some-thing we havent seen inseveral years.

Joanne Neft and LauraKenny love the farmersmarket. The weekly mar-kets, in Auburn andthroughout Placer Coun-ty, have become commu-nity gathering places
where families and farm-ers meet to talk about
what food is in seasonand where it comes from.
That farm-to-table con-cept served as the inspira-tion for Placer CountyReal Food, a collection ofmenus for every week ofthe year. The food, pur-chased at local farmersmarkets, was prepared byNeft and Kenny, pho-tographed by Keith Sutterand served at weekly din-
ners. The cookbook, re-leased in April 2010, hasbecome a staple inkitchens throughout the
country although itsenthusiastic receptioncame as a welcome sur-prise to its authors.
Joanne and I were won-dering if we were going tobe sitting on 9,000 copiesof the book, we truly
were, Kenny laughed.Two years later, the
authors are preparing forthe release of The Art of
Real Food, published byNefts In Season Publish-ing. A similar cookbook toReal Food, The Art of
Real Food features sever-al new twists.
This book is different in
that it focuses on a fruit orvegetable at its peak of fla-vor that particular week ofthe year, Neft explained.
The book is divided intoweeks, each featuring re-cipes that call for that
weeks star. All ingredientswere purchased at thefarmers market. An up-coming week focuses onred chard and rhubarb,offering meals such asSwiss chard soup andfried chard stems withblue cheese. The cook-book also contains cook-ing tips and an abun-dance of informationabout eating healthfully.
It provides a concreteway for people to under-stand how to eat seasonal-ly and from local foodsources, said Carol
Arnold, general managerof the Foothill FamersMarket. Its an excellenttool that if they go into the

Although stocked withhealthy recipes, the bookalso includes a few indul-gences, referred to aslove by its authors.Those treats arent forbid-den, they say, but shouldbe eaten in moderation.
Neft and Kenny agreedthat a favorite recipe inthe new book is for Meyer
lemon pudding. Likemany of the more than250 recipes in the book, it
was submitted by afriend. Without the helpof local farmers, Kennysaid, the book would nothave been possible.
The book adds severalartistic elements. Suttersphotography graces thepages, and Auburns Paula
Amerine created 35 water-color paintings of manyfoods.
Auburn sculptor Antho-
ny Maki-Gill hand-craftedmore than 70 servingdishes for the project.
I cant think of anymore purposeful ormeaningful project thancreating art with and for
your community, andhaving it centered aroundthe creation of food asart, Maki-Gill said.
It was the idea of thewhole package art com-bined with fresh, localfood that prompted Neftto call Kenny and propose
a second book.I said, I think theres an
opportunity to put togeth-er a rather unique cook-book. How would you feelabout doing anotherone? Neft said. AndLaura didnt slam thephone down on my ear.
Sixteen months of writ-ing and collecting recipesand organizing monthly
or bi-monthly photoshoots has culminated inThe Art of Real Food,
which was released April28.
Thinking about the evo-lution of healthy eating,Neft, a longtime agricul-ture advocate, said that in
just the past few years, thiscommunity and the worldhave realized the impor-
tance of fresh, healthyfoods, and have embracedfarmers markets.
People are growingmore, people are moreaware that its to theiradvantage to eat healthyfood, Neft said. Its reallygood for their children, itsimportant for the peoplethey love, to feed themhealthy food.

The building originallyserved as a fruit ware-house, conveniently
located across from therailroad depot. By 1891, it
was the home of the localnewspaper, The NewsMessenger. It was also thelocal office of the countytax collector.
Since the early 1900s, ithas served mainly as aresidence.
The material for thisbuilding was broughtfrom Virginiatown, afterthe gold gave out in that
mining town. A stonestore in Virginiatownowned by Philetus Everts
