“ There was not any judgment about where you are at in your process. This is the beginning of my journey and no one said I had to do this or do that, or that I was doing anything wrong. I also liked to hear that it is rarely an overnight decision, but a process. I also like knowing I have support and people to ask questions to! ”

“ They can learn a lot about being a vegan and eating raw from a qualified nutritionist.Not like other unqualified people that are not doctors or scientists or have any credentials who give lectures and write books. He made a good point that you can get a lot of misleading information from these books and lectures. You can get the scientific and correct information from a Qualified MD and nutritionist. He will not answer a question "I cant really tell you I am not a Doctor" he has an answer for just about everything in the Raw food world. ”

“ Meet a great group of people who you wish to learn, grow, and share with. My youngest being 6 yrs. was inspired to learn about edible plants on our hike, My 17 1/2 year old daughter, and her boyfriend had fun with various activities- hackysac, tree climbing, basketball, frisbee, and we all loved the food. We all had never been to a potluck, & this was great fun for all of us- no one felt excluded- or that there was' nt something interesting for them to join in on! ”

“ Information. Never stop questioning. People do what they have always done, eat meat, drink milk, eat processed foods, sugars etc... because they always have and thats the way it should be... without information people don't know what they are doing to their health. It is good to meet people who don't do the "norm" so that they can learn the other sides of it. ”
