What is Healthy Traditions Network?

Healthy Traditions Network www.htnetwork.org is the local chapter of The Weston A Price Foundation www.westonaprice.org and continues to help people in the Detroit area learn more and connect with local farmers, fresh foods, and real information.  There are chapters in many states and probably in yours, visit   

Healthy Traditions Network is the Detroit & Lapeer chapters of the Weston A Price Foundation. We are a unique, nonprofit organization connecting like-minded people and communities to farms and other sources dedicated to providing nutrient-dense foods for our tables. With the belief that we are responsible for building good health - especially that of our children - the network strives to provide opportunities to learn about and experience foods that sustain and uplift us.

The intention of this network is to support those trying to create better health through education and by improving their dietary practices according to the ancient wisdom of traditional cultures as shown by the research of Weston Price and written about in Sally Fallon’s Nourishing Traditions cookbook. As a local chapter of the Weston A. Price Foundation, the Network promotes the work of the Foundation at the local level. 

You can learn how to prepare delicious meals loaded with nutrition to give your body all it needs to prevent illness and disease and enjoy a higher quality of life. By coming together we can begin to reverse the societal trend of physical degeneration and build a healthier generation for today and the future. Many opportunities are available to help you transition your dietary habits. The Network hosts quarterly social events as well as educational lectures and workshops.

The Weston A. Price Foundation is a nonprofit, tax-exempt charity founded in 1999 to disseminate the research of nutrition pioneer Dr. Weston Price, whose studies of isolated nonindustrialized peoples established the parameters of human health and determined the optimum characteristics of human diets. Dr. Price's research demonstrated that humans achieve perfect physical form and perfect health generation after generation only when they consume nutrient-dense whole foods and the vital fat-soluble activators found exclusively in animal fats.
