INTERVIEW

In this edition of Catalyst Radio we learn about an organization called Holistic Moms Network, newly formed in the Grand Rapids area.

Avery Karns is organizer of the new Grand Rapids Chapter, and talks about the events and resources offered by the group working to connect parents interested in holistic and green living for their families.

Information topics include pregnancy, natural childbirth, breast-feeding, attachment parenting, health care and environmental concerns.

Offering monthly meetings, educational session and outings focusing on green living, the local chapter of HMN is inviting anyone interested to participate.

Local music featured this week on Catalyst Radio is from local singer/songwriter Brant Satala. Just out is the release The Summerthief, with the song “The Riparian Girl.”
