About Us
The Natural Solutions Foundation is pleased to announce the formation of the new Chiriquí Times — a newspaper and web site serving all of Chiriquí Province and its main towns of David, Volcan and Boquete, and incorporating The Bajareque Noticeas, a tourist paper published since 2005 in Boquete and Chiriquí-Libre, a local newspaper published in Volcan.
Co-Publishers: Maj Gen Bert Stubblebine (US Army, Ret) and Rima E. Laibow MD
Editor: David Dell
As members of the Chiriquí community, the Trustees of the Valley of the Moon Eco Demonstration Project, www.MyValleyoftheMoon.org and www.NaturalSoltuionsFoundation.org, recognized the need for a paper serving the needs of Panamanian and foreign Chircanos - people from Chiriquí - as well as the vigorous tourist population.
Chiriquí Times is a newspaper for those who farm in Chiriquí, Panama's fertile breadbasket, those who live here and those who come to see our wonders and fall in love with our people, our scenery and our special way of life.
The Valley of the Moon Eco Demonstration Project was created by the Natural Solutions Foundation, an international, supporter-supported NGO, active and registered in several countries, including as a “nonprofit private interest foundation…” in the Republic of Panama (called the "Panamanian Foundation" on this site) and as a not for profit 501(c)(3) tax exempt organization in the United States (called the "US Foundation" here). This memorandum outlines the intent of the Trustees with regard to the Foundation’s Valley of the Moon Eco Community (VOTMEC) demonstration project for private inquiries. The Foundation was established in 2004 in the United States and in 2008 in the Republic of Panama, by Rima E. Laibow, MD and Maj. Gen. Bert Stubblebine (US Army, Ret.). The Board of Trustees also includes our Foundation Counsel, Ralph Fucetola JD.
The Mission of the Foundation is to discover, develop, document, demonstrate and disseminate natural solutions to the issues which threaten our health, food and freedom, achieving and maintaining a healthy self, community and world.
