John F.'s Story
I joined The Air Force right after High School and ended up stationed at Travis Air Force Base in Northern CA.
When I got out I returned to The Valley for about a year and attended Valley J.C. but couldn't take the smog. At the time I rented an apartment in North Hollywood with Joe Rivera for $75.00 a month (37.50 Each). How much does that place rent for now?
From there I moved back up north and got a job in one of the early Natural Foods Stores-oak barrels for bulk bins etc...
Joe wrote me a letter from Mexico where he was doing some school work and told me how nice it was. I went to visit him in Oaxaca and ended up spending almost five years there off and on. During that time I traveled frequently to Guatemala and met...Expand for more
my future ex-wife who was born in Colorado.
We moved to Humboldt Co. CA in 1978 where I remain today. I have two kids one of whom is grown and living in the Bay Area. My son graduated from High School in 2009 and is now working at an organic farm. He still has a room here in my home but isn't here very often.
I am currently The Produce Manager at Eureka Natural Foods in Eureka CA. We opened a brand new 22,000 sq. ft. store in May 2007. We carry only Organically Grown Produce and we are very busy! I also oversee our Dairy and Bulk Foods Departments as well as handle most of our advertising. I am our voice on the radio as well as television.
So that about covers it. Feel free to e-mail me, I'd love to hear from you!
