Our purpose at Desert Cities Raw and Living Food Community is to have fun, share raw/vegan meals, and discuss and promote the raw/living foods diet and its health benefits. We promote a whole, organic live and living diet and support local organic farmers. Our calendar of events will include potlucks, book discussions & lectures, movie/video viewings, social get togethers, restaurant outings and other health related opportunities within our community. 

Raw and living food consists of uncooked fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds and sprouted grains. It is a 100% vegan plant-based diet (except for the occasional use of honey in some dishes) consisting of foods that are not processed or heated above 115 degrees in order to preserve their nutrition and enzymes. Sounds healthy, but does it taste good? You bet!

Whether you are an experienced raw vegan or just raw curious at this point, you are welcome in this community!
