raw food potluck
give me that good ol' Vitamin D please!

community

It's been a dream of mine to have a raw food community - one that is working together in local, organic, sustainable & fun ways. When I moved to VT, I realized quickly that raw food wasn't widely-known. It's becoming more prevalent which is awesome but in my mind, it's still in its infancy (maybe it's a toddler now).

What will raw food communities look like here in VT? My own thoughts are of permaculturists, herbalists, mother earth lovin' peeps & local farmers might all see the connections & want to join this greater dream of a healthy planet while supporting local farmers, local environment & local economy. And how to have a community when there is so few that really understand this way of eating/ living? Well, that is where the fun begins...

Please join me in whatever way works for you. Start a raw food potluck. Sign up for my weekly (or so) newsletter. Take a class or workshop, read some books on the subject, send me an email. Try this easy recipe below & email me your feedback.

Chocolate Pudding recipe
by Linda Wooliever

This was among the very first recipes that I made when I experimented with raw food. I ate this for breakfast sometimes. How can you feel deprived when you eat like this?

2 bananas
• 1 avocado
• 1-2 Tbsp raw cacao powder (or raw carob)
• 1 tsp raw honey or agave (optional)

Mix in a food processor until it becomes smooth like pudding.

Serves 2.

Take some raw action!

Thank you for your good words, thoughts & deeds.

Love & many blessings,

Linda
