The Detroit suburb of West Bloomfield is home to Henry Ford West Bloomfield Hospital, which recently made news headlines nationwide with the opening of its new million-dollar organic greenhouse and garden, which is believed to be the first of its kind in the United States. Boasting five types of kale, 23 kinds of heirloom tomatoes, strawberry plants, microgreens, and five varieties each of squash, eggplant, hot and sweet peppers, basil and more, the greenhouse features an extensive hydroponics system and an exquisite lobby for entertaining, teaching kids and hosting events.

 

The greenhouse’s manager and gardener, Michelle Lutz, sat down for an interview with AltHealthWORKS.com to discuss how the project began, the state of hospital food in America, and what the natural health community can do to affect change in other parts of the country.

One oil spill in his community was more than enough for Kalamazoo resident Christopher Wahmhoff. To protest Enbridge’s replacement of the pipeline that burst along a Michigan riverbank in 2010, Wahmhoff spent 10 hours of his 35th birthday inside the new pipe, slowing construction for a single day in June.

 

Now Wahmhoff, a member of the Michigan Coalition Against Tar Sands [aka MI-CATS], has been charged with two felonies and a misdemeanor, charges that could see him put behind bars for more than two years. “It was worth it, without a doubt,” he told the Battle Creek Enquirer on Tuesday following a preliminary hearing before a district judge. “We got awareness out.”

Concerns about the impact to local groundwater by massive water use—on a scale never before seen in Michigan fracking operations—are coming to a head, as the plan for Encana Oil & Gas (USA) Inc. to use 8.4 million gallons of water to fracture a single well has been stymied by a lack of water on site.

 

Instead, the company is trucking water—nearly 1 million gallons of it in just one week—from the City of Kalkaska’s water system to meet its needs. This one fracking operation today is using more water than Kalkaska is using for all its needs over the same time period. The Westerman 1-29 HD1 gas/oil well, located on Wood Road in Rapid River Township, Kalkaska County, originally permitted to Chevron Michigan, LLC, is now being operated by Encana.

I don't know whats going on in SW Michigan, but since Thursday the amount of Chem-trail activity has been more in the past three days, than for a majority of this year at least since April I know for sure.   Just a few here and there, we were lucky actually, compared to what other areas would be reporting at times.  

 

However since Thursday, it has been in Over-Drive I wouldn't be afraid to say almost 300% increase, and it's constant I've observed them since daybreak this morning, and they have continued in non stop up until dusk.  They would even have two to three planes at a time, just miles apart from each other in flight. 

 

While observing this phenomena all day, around 3:30pm me and three other friends were all standing around outside each getting ready to head seperate ways, saying our good buys, and over head there is this white elongated object, you couldn't see wings on it, but the body size and shape of it would fit that of the Military Type Drones, completely silent, approximately 10,000 ft. in altitude, flying across underneath all of the chem-trail activity.

 

Later as we got up the road a bit we seen another one.  I can't say for sure what it was, but we all know that it most certainly wasn't anything we commonly see, and it appeared to move at a speed one would think only a toy could remain airborne at that speed. 

 

It has been a most peculiar three days, especially Today!!!

 

I just wanted to post this incase anyone else had noticed really increased activity, we could see if maybe there was a pattern or something to it.

 

Stay safe everyone, were in the homestretch now, to a new and glorious existance!!!

 

My Love and Light to Everyone!
