The Woodstock Fruit Festival 2012 Documentary

[@FruitForJen]

These people have changed my life... and they don't even know it. Hope that I am financially stable enough to attend one of these one year. :) This is a great documentary.

[@AlexaSusannebestwaytohealth]

There is nothing more rewarding is helping someone change their lives for the positive. This is an inspiration about humanity! More people need to see this video and make the change!

[@vegrantz]

I WILL be there next year. This documentary just reminded so much of why I came to this lifestyle. Thank you Mike, Doug, and everyone else. You are all beautiful souls and shining lights to this way of a healthier life.

[@jahcandance]

I don't know how, and I don't know when, but one day I will attend WFF!

[@MrJessehendrix10]

[@rozchristopherson648]

That Lockhart "stretch-through" and "windmill" were awesome !!!! 😊

[@lanac8796]

I'm so excited and I'm sure nobody from the fruit festival is going to see this comment but I'm going there in a few days with my dad who is vegan and I am becoming vegetarian but I'm super excited and I'm going to be blogging there and I'm so excited because I know I'm going to have a great time meeting a bunch of new people and new friends

[@FruitFestival]

Dear Lana, Thank you very much for your comment ♥ We look forward to seeing you soon XX ♥

[@soberpaco]

thank you! i'm done listening to others. i following my own voice and this vid has given me the clarity. i want this , i doing this. my personal goal is to go to the wff next year. tremendous health challenges going on for me, i believe all that is changed starting now!! thank you.

[@tangyjbird]

yay! I'm so glad you guys came to film us all, you rock and thank you!

[@JennellesJourney]

oh the memories :D this festival literally changed my life. 2013 is comin up so soon!! COME!! :D

[@cgmaurlina]

I've been following the 811 ratio for about 6 months now and have averaged about 80% raw. This video is so amazing and makes me want to push through to 100% raw. Seeing Kappi Osborne do pull-ups was mind blowing. I want that for any future children of mine.

[@FruitFanatic33]

This just brings me back to the great feelings of that life-changing week......Thanks so much.. I'm going to go sign up again right now!! Love & Health to you all, Itsy

[@lowrider2040]

The power of the mind is unfathomable, an individual who is motivated enough can accomplish anything they put their mind to. I think that this documentary is testament to the power of the human mind and the power of motivated human beings. I don't think that it is testament to the raw fruit diet. There are a thousand ways to live your life, no one of those lives is the right way because the right way varies between every individual.

[@MolrikE]

Thanks for this documentary! It's an inspiration for me!

[@Alltair90]

Woodstock Fruit Festival is on my to do list in life! It looks like so much fun and the people are so vibrant, kind, adventurous etc. The list can go on. Who wouldn't wanted want to surround themselves with these kind of people. Sweet doco *Big thumbs up*

[@phoenixvan5303]

This was such a wonderful message share. Thank you so much!!! Hope to be there in 2015!!!!!

[@TheRawAdvantage]

Im Going to Cry, Love love love it, so stoked for next year!!!

[@michaelshaw8778]

I know where I will be next summer. What an incredible experience this must me. Given how toxic our cultural environment has become, I look at the community that comes together at this event and am sure that the positive energy is euphoric. I am two days into the fruitarian lifestyle and look forward to the health benefits on the horizon. One of my goals is to arrive at the festival, take my shirt off and strike a pose reminiscent of Michelangelo's David. I have no doubt I will with fruits help

[@LucumaPrincess]

this brought tears to my eyes. Really hoping to be there next year!

[@Beyondthemindpodcast]

Richard deserves the brightest love in the sky

[@veganbadass]

Excellent picture and sound. Big ups to the video crew!

[@chvxchck]

This is an amaaazing documentary!! I miss the festival so much now, can't waiiit for next year!!

[@lusterwings]

Hopefully we can all attend this very very soon!

[@LeoInterHyenaem]

What a positive atmosphere! Well done!..

[@poprocks71]

How I would love to have one of these in Ohio.. much love to all of you

[@ineesmachado]

this is beautiful!

[@FruityRonster]

yes i will put some more up soon, thanks for commenting, maybe see you at next years wff if you're there

[@fionaazreal]

I really would love to attend this next year. Unfortunately, $1,000+ is a LOT of money for me. I hope that eventually the festival organizers make it possible for people on a budget to partake. For instance, I'd be more than glad to "work" part of the time (cleaning, prepping food, etc) and have a reduced or even free admission. In any event, I loved the video, love the energy of the fruit eaters, and love the inspiration!

[@chemese1908]

I really hope I can attend this year. This video has inspired me.

[@talksolot]

yeah, it's nice that he got so much support there. i'd like to see him in a year from then.

[@sleepyfish]

I was there and it was this awesome! Maybe more!

[@kelhado]

Thank you so much for this, everyone. Especially you, Mike. You inspired me to ultra run.

[@handymanbananas]

THANK YOU EVERYONE FOR THE VID!!!

[@CujoBD.]

Wow! I'm so impressed with Richard. Sharing a story like that - the courage it would take - is incredible. Good fucking job Richard! I support you!

[@VegasMilgauss]

Apologies Africa

[@Rawgasmic]

What an amazing film. I'm so impressed with Richard Widmark :)

[@DrifterH]

I eat this way since 2009 and feel fantastic. Laughing at my friends getting sick all the time.

[@MsLaurenPanda]

This looks amazing and life changing. I can't wait to go! I need a job to save up!!!

[@jeremyc.4958]

Awesome Video. Wish next year I could go.

[@GoRodent]

Someday the whole world will live like this...

[@CarlHarwatt]

Awesome, absolutely love it. See you at WFF 2013!!! :o)

[@hokageuno]

this is inspiring. wow. great job. thank you.

[@TimShieff]

I do hope to be there this year

[@mwjeepster]

Can't wait for August 2013, I'm there!!!!! :-)

[@EMSpdx]

One thing: If you live in a warm and fertile climate, this can work very well. If you live in a climate that gets chilly, then cooked starches and cooked greens are totally fine.

[@pupspepper]

i had tears in my eyes watching this :) it's amazing. great work this docu the way we eat will spread as all truth does, which time has come. fruit and love

[@Ayame471989]

I think, in the beginning you also have to learn a lot: where do you get good quality produce which is still affordable to you? how much should you eat? how will you do this socially? why is all this worth it?... :) I've done this diet for some weeks in the past but wasn't yet able to eat enough constantly (this is still a challenge for me). But I'm working on this and hope to get to this lifestyle again then being able to stay there because I've never felt so good than when eating this way. :)

[@naturallifestyleshow]

Looks like a nice time! We hope to attend one! :)

[@marcbateman3923]

It is really nice to see people enjoying themselves and trying to get healthy and eat healthy. Personally l prefer to avoid fruits and vegetables and only eat sprouts, seaweeds and algaes, but l appreciate the motivation of my fruit brothers and sisters to eat raw foods in their natural state. Bravo to you all for trying to improve your life...the raw lifestyle isn't always easy to do in this hectic world of SAD mentalities. Love to you all, The Sproutarian.

[@sonrisitas02]

Hola!! deberían de hacer un festival en méxico seria maravilloso ya que aquí tenemos una gran variedad de frutas y verduras orgánicas.... felicidades, muchos éxitos mas ...=)

[@_nikkiknox2852]

It's actually way easy after a while. I struggled for a while too, but what helped me was buying my staples of bananas, kiwis, oranges and apples in bulk, freezing the bananas and kiwis and juicing the apples and oranges I hadn't eaten once they were ripe and using them in smoothies :) Remember, frozen and dehydrated still count as raw ;)

[@Jadeontwowheels]

Really wish I could go this year. I WILL go one year soon!!!!

[@readingsbyladean7574]

This is so inspiring, I hope to one day attend!!

[@JennellesJourney]

dates are aug 20-28 2013!

[@TimShieff]

Booked my ticked for this year

[@melissamccue2003]

I agree, I went to search for this on my WII youtube channel and it just doesn't come up. Why make us watch on computer!

[@missnectarina]

47.21 minutes weren't enough :D I would like to see more about it, love it!!!

[@bobbiysmael]

I love this.. Do we have music with this? You guys are AWESOME

[@DivinelyDeveraux]

Is there any more update on Richard? I'm absolutely in awe of how awesome he is! :)

[@lakaraviro]

So much love in one single Vid. Thank You

[@fruitbatanne]

Dear Didrock17, Yes, WFF is totally non-profit. Love and Peaches XX♥

[@100point1percent]

700 next year no problem ..... in a few more years 7000... this video alone with spark hundreds and thousands of people!! I didn't even know about this event, and I'm basically fruitarian -- so the word is spreading :o) Would LOVE to attend ... esp. with all the fun things you get to do besides...

[@balisuncocoyt]

Seems like a pretty interesting festival ... I notice they eat a lotof durian from Thailand. Do you eat durian?

[@PETEtheTRAINER]

I really enjoyed this video but, it was TOO short ! Today I'm celebrating DAY 100 of eating low fat raw, so a special thank you to Dan the Man for inspiring me (via his videos) to "give it a whirl" and jump in to this life changing lifestyle. Warm Regards to all Pete Las Vegas NV

[@Ayame471989]

Everyone can try. I can only speak for myself: I feel soooo much better, when I eat this way: so much cleaner, fitter, more energy, more love towards myself and others, happier, more positive, wanting to exercise (which I otherwise don't do because it's to exhausting), more confident, more open to other people, ... :)

[@FoodnSport]

Fruits and vegetables, baby, you better believe it! We're leading the way to a better world.

[@AliseVeritas]

I think it is an interesting experience, and it is very good to eat more fruit and vegetable. But.... Try eating fully raw in Alaska or north of Russia or Scandinavia, where they have 5 snowy cold months (at least), and it is not possible not to drink hot tea or eat soup. Bananas and tropical fruit don't fall straight from the trees in their mouths. Sure, you can buy some, but they are expensive and you need a lot of fruit to get all the calories you need. As an event, Woodstock fruit festival is great. It's like summer camp full of fun and people who think same as you..)

[@feelingoffbalance]

If you think about it, humans as animals come from Africa. We are a tropical animal that needs to live in heated shelters and put lots of clothes on when it's snowing. The same if you bought a pet that was a tropical animal, like a turtle, you would have to put him in heated terrarium and give him food that is good for him. So what is unnatural? Maybe living in Alaska is...

[@wweastsidelv]

oh thats awesome do you have anymore songs you write?

[@CujoBD.]

Okay. I'm inspired. I'm going to try to be FULLY raw for 1 week tomorrow! I'm high raw now but this inspired me!

[@DB-xq4df]

Can't wait to be there!!

[@FruityRonster]

song is called "the answer", you wont find it many places I wrote it myself, thanks :)

[@seanwallace5672]

I want to go there next year so bad!

[@poetinmyheart94]

I would absolutely love to go one day. What a wonderful group of people. I've been vegan for over a year now and I'm learning more and more each day. I've recently gone high-carb, low-fat (mostly) raw and the only cooked food I eat are potatoes. Been seeing great results since. No way am I ever going back!

[@sarahcoffey4216]

Looks lovely! I want to go this year!! Yay!! :D

[@reggiedavis2803]

The cost depends on how much of a priority you make it. If you make it high priority you take monies from other things, things you could do without, or things less important than health (which is most things), take that money and go buy up some organic fruits and vegetables...and then sit back and watch your life change--like I did.

[@livia5903]

i remember very vaguely going to this when i was around 6 edit: it's crazy that i see my parents, around 2:59

[@FruitFestival]

Hope you had a good time XX ♥♥

[@livia5903]

thank you!!! even though i myself was not a fruitarian and i still am not, i loved the atmosphere of everyone there and how accepting it was

[@arrusbol]

tried this diet a few times.. it's just too expensive for me at this time in my life. I am in college on an basically nonexistent college student budget. I would like to try it again once I get out of college and get a better income.

[@aerithxx]

Raw veganism is absolutely amazing and you're all beautiful! :)

[@Ayame471989]

I'm not the kind of person who is good at switching his/her whole mealplan at once. So at the moment I'm slowly going my way more and more towards low fat, high carb raw vegan. First, I went vegetarian, then cooked vegan, a few months ago I stopped eating gluten, at the moment I try to reduce oil/fat and salt in my diet. I'm eating more and more fruits, rice and potatoes.

[@camarade2]

THIS IS PARADISE! I LOVE U GUYZ ALL OF YOU

[@theagehacker]

Please have a WFF in 2013, I really want to be involved next year (couldn't come this year sadly)

[@bananiac]

I can't wait for this! Can't wait to meet more bananiacs! :)

[@RickVenegas]

there's FullyrawKristina!!!

[@Noradalal]

I really like this video!

[@marcostott]

2013 is going to be big and 2014 bigger

[@FruityRonster]

the song is called "the answer", thats me playing

[@mikemanuka]

I reckon those porta-loo's would be getting s stern workout! 811 style :)

[@SophiaRochas]

Ok i come from Montreal and i try to figure out how i can have money for going in the next event its in which city near New York or ?

[@potterylady1]

Hey :)! Well for me it is. I live in Texas. You know everyone wants events to be right around the corner from them lol. It's cool though. But it still seems like a wonderful event.

[@dylaustin8]

Can someone make this available on mobile devices?

[@mikoda94]

How long have you been on this diet?

[@Skyla22222]

is it nothin but raw fruit and veg?? or can they eat nuts, and beans etc??

[@JennellesJourney]

same place! camp walden in diamond point, NY

[@jase7725]

Why not available on mobile? I can't watch it in my iPhone? :(

[@comedianonstage]

Hmmm, haven't mind up my mind for this summer, the fruit festival or wwoofing at Hawaii

[@RawMikeIce]

It costs about 300 days saved from being sick and 20 days of being in the hospital. Oh and health insurance, not a worry any more. But seriously, i get by on between $8 to 20$ a day depending on the fruit in season and the money in the wallet. Thank goodness for bananas!

[@a-love-supremist]

Cappi is a cute kid! Looks like Atreyu from the Neverending Story. His life really will be a neverending story the way he is eating.

[@andrew19vato]

where and when does this festival actually happen?
