• 𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐥! (Please no artificial chemicals or preservatives!)
• We love raw organic fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds, etc.! Gourmet-ish chefs often get creative with wonderful salads, raw vegan entrees like lasagnas, desserts, etc.
• These events are about abundance! If eaten alone, one person's food should fill at least 2-3 people (𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐦𝐮𝐦 - 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐏𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐋𝐘 𝐅𝐈𝐋𝐋 𝐘𝐎𝐔!).
• Please provide a detailed list of ingredients for whatever you bring.
• When preparing your foods, please use standard food prep practices (hand-washing prior to handling foods, rinsing produce, etc.)
• If this is your first time and you don't know what to bring, consider a fresh organic fruit or vegetable salad with dressing on the side.
• For those who can prepare gourmet raw food recipes, bring it on! This is a chance to share delicious raw food recipes with each other, and further the raw food mission of health and peace, as well as inspire others to create amazing gourmet raw vegan foods!
• Please bring your own dishware and utensils, including serving utensils!
