A new Fresh Food Festival is planned for 2009. The detailes below are for the festival that took place summer 2008.

FRESH FOOD FESTIVAL FALKENBERG, SWEDEN, JULY 4-6 2008

Join us for a celebration and feast of raw and living foods in southern Sweden. A get together and possibility to meet other rawfooders, to learn about the benefits of raw foods and to get inspiration.

This is only some basic information. More information and a full program will be published later.
We plan to have lectures on health and raw food, food demos, social and outdoor activities. And there will be a lot of raw and living foods in the form of fresh fruit and vegetables, salads, smoothies, dressings, pate, etc.

Our aim with the festival is to:

Bring people with the common interest of natural lifestyle, raw and living foods together. People with previous experience and people who are new to fresh food lifestyle are equally welcome.
Offer and exchange knowledge and information.
Have fun and eat delicious foods!
We also arrange this festival because we wish to make known the health advantages with raw and living foods. We know by own experience and we have support from science that a raw plant based diet is health producing. Raw and living foods have a high potential to prevent and treat disease. We think education and increased use of raw and living foods would greatly enhance health in society.
