About The French Meadows Summer Camp

Please visit the new George Ohsawa Macrobiotic Foundation website at http://ohsawamacrobiotics.com, which replaces this website.

The George Ohsawa Macrobiotic Foundation cordially invites you to the 41st Annual French Meadows Summer Camp to be held in the majestic Tahoe National Forest, July 17 - 25, 2010 (early arrival date for staff: July 16). The 2010 camp will actually be the 51st annual Ohsawa-style camp, as ten camps were held in other locations before settling into French Meadows.
