I’m from sunny south England as well (or at least it certainly was today!)
Hmm…not sure if I should say this, but there’s plenty of advice on UK raw-food places/shops/etc on the UK forum I moderate…click my pic – all info on profile.
me too! west kent. have only just found this (brilliant) website but have been raw on and off for a year and have been to a couple of talks/seminars in the uk run by therawfoodcoach.co uk and detoxyourworld.co.uk – all very inspirational.
I’m not good with meals, I had one the other day for my mother’s birthday and we went to a Harvester Restaurant so unfortunately I couldn’t eat raw, but I had lots of salad and a small main meal.
Hi thanks evildarkvirus i find the dealing with outside world and converting to raw hardest it like fighting battle between youself your old beliefs and mental cravings and your friends
onto another subject check out this blog re from another member http://therawkitchen.blogspot.com/ she is in Brighton and the receipes look amazing
:) Great to see there are people in England being raw! It feels like the Americans have it easier than us – getting my hands on an affordable dehydrator is looking to be a hard job and some ingredients are hard to find. sob. Well I am going to try my best!
CHEERYDEB - you’re in Liverpool, you have to come to our Potluck! We do it every month. The details are here on our website : http://purelyraw.com/potluck.htm We haven’t got the March date on there yet but it will be the 15th March(3rd Sat every month) We have people from the Midlands, Leeds, even Shropshire come along. We like to swap recipe books and have a good chin wag and a giggle…it is always a great evening. And I just LOVE having around 15 raw foodists in my house at the same time!! Are you at Liverpool Uni? One of our regulars to the potluck is also there studying chemistry. She made the best savoury pie ever last potluck.
I hope you all know that Red Sugar has opened to rave reviews in Edinburgh. Raw desserts, superfood smoothies and juices, Lucky Edinburgh. Their temporary website is here: http://www.red-sugar.co.uk
Evildarkvirus – my hubby just made a HUGE dehudrator with bits and bobs from B&Q – basically a shelving unit and some lightbulbs, it works perfectly, is 4 times the size of a 9 tray excalibur and cost £67. We spent a fortune importing our champion and exclaibur from the USA a few years ago. I think there’s always a few good deals on ebay now though.
For anyone wantng to get together with other like minds, come along to our kitchen classes, or order some of the yummiest raw food available, give our website a visit. Do give us a call, Chris and I love chatting to our fellow raw gods and goddesses on the phone ;)
