Funky Raw Rob's Groups

 

Welcome to the wild world of Rob

My projects

I've been eating a raw diet for nearly 7 years now and it's become a mission of mine to spread information about raw food and health, plus everything that goes with living a natural life.

Funky Raw magazine

I publish a quarterly raw food magazine as an ebook and a printed magazine and am always on the lookout for new writers and artists - at the moment payment is a free copy of the magazine. Open for articles on raw food and recipes plus related areas of spirituality, consciousness, permaculture/gardening, alternative heath and more.

A free sample issue is available to download.

Please email submissions to magazine@funkyraw.com

Free delivery offer at Funky Raw

I also run an online shop and I'm currently offering free delivery on orders over £50 to mainland UK.

Edible beech nuts from Epping Forest

I was walking in the forest when I heard a pitter-patter sound, like the sound of water dripping from the leaves after it has rained. But it hadn’t rained recently so I stood still and watched to see what was falling. Beech nuts! I’ve seen the empty outer shells before but never the actual nuts [...] Related articles:

Nice to see you here! I've been considering Raw for years, but it was finding a copy of Funky Raw magazine at the library that's given me the incentive to get stuck in.
Thanks!
