 We're in the Training room, at the back of the cafe, near the toilets. Call Alice's mobile if you can't find us. 

Come get together with other lovers of raw goodness and share some food, recipe ideas and the joy of eating raw.

We're meeting at the Training room at Ceres so week don't freeze as Melbourne starts getting cold. For those who don't know, CERES is a community environmental park in Brunswick, on the Merri creak. Beautiful place to hang out, as well as having a nursery, an organic community garden and an organic market (great prices!).

We'll be going juice crazy this meet up and we'll have a couple juicers to share. The room is equipped with crockery and cutlery (we can share the washing up afterwards) but bring your own cups for juice, and good food prep implements. Bring food to share and/or buy some fresh fruit and veggies at the Ceres market (on from 9-1pm) and whip up some raw creations as a group.

We're paying to use the training room, a contribution of somewhere between $5 or $10 from everyone will cover it, it'll depend on how many of us there are on the day. We're thinking of fund raising ideas for the group (recipe books, raw market stalls etc) so hopefully we'll have a bit of a fund for things like rooms, a little raw library etc. Bring your ideas to the meet up, email me, or post them on our meet.com message board.

We're trying to compile a recipe book so bring some of your favourite recipes or, better still, email them to me in advance.

Please email me with preferences for times and locations for future meet ups so we can find ways to make the locations convenient for everyone.

June meet up, we're thinking a raw movies and pizza event to warm up in Winter. Helena has a great film on raw she's looking forward to sharing and it'll be fun to see what raw creations we can make on the theme of 'pizza party'. Kale chips? Sprouted corn? Dehydrated pizza? Fruit punch? Yum already.
