Raw Food Cold Climate
Information
I am successfully all raw in Alaska. It has been a bit of a bumpy ride to get here, and I would love to share what I've learned.

Comment by Rural Raw on November 8, 2008 at 11:40am -
We are a vegan family who moved from urban Los Angeles to the sticks of Michigan. We have a three year old daughter and are 10 weeks pregnant with our second child. We have an organic garden and belong to an organic (not certified) CSA. We had a midwife for our first birth and have a great midwife for our second birth.
I do 95% of the food preparing/cooking and since moving to rural Michigan it has been a challenge maintaining our dietary choice. We hardly and I mean hardly ever eat out and when we travel half of our bags are filled with food.
There are a couple of things that this community could help us with:
1. An internet source for raw organic nuts that don’t cost a bazillion dollars.
2. Any advice about raw food storage and sprouting
3. Any advice about cold weather gardening and any other information that you found useful staying raw.
Thanks and hope to hear from you soon.
hop, adalila and ayanna

Throwing out a question, deep breathing...how do you do it? I sing to Josh Groban, Andrea Boccelli, Sara Brightman...those long notes can be killers! LOL! I also work on my posture, since it helps w/ the singing!
how 'bout you?...
luv to live, live to luv,

- I guess, where ever you are, if you are ready for a raw food lifestyle, you are ready for it (even though it may be easier to adjust to it in a warmer climate :)

Comment by Whitney on August 10, 2009 at 1:18pm - Ok, I don't live in a cold climate right now but I will one day. I love fluffy snow and cold, crisp air. It is great to see that there are so many raw fans enjoying the cold. I currently live in Kentucky but grew up in New Jersey. How I miss snow days!

- Hey, Whitney, I grew up in Kentucky and while it might not compare to New Jersey, it can get pretty cold in the winter! My winters in Kentucky were MUCH colder and snowier than my winters now here in Idaho.

I feel fungal overgrowth is the biggest threat to human health today and it's always wise to win the war on candida. I used to be really into making sure I didn't eat any food that raw vegans considered toxic and be really dogmatic. I prefer livin...

Can you just eat more volume so you don't binge? also, what about eating really dense herbs like a bunch or two of parsely or basil put into a pesto? Parsely is high in iron so you can make a tabouli with it and use oranges instead of tomatoes- it...
