Raw Fest at Stithians Showground

12:00pm Saturday 1st September 2012 in News

Stithians Showground is playing host to the first ever “Raw Fest”  showcasing the benefits of raw vegan food and a healthy lifestyle.

Top international raw food experts, chefs, health and nutritional advisors, alongside local producers, will be exhibiting and presenting at the festival, which will run until Sunday.

On offer will be raw vegan food, wild food and herbs as well as yoga sessions, tai chi and dance workshops, strength training, relaxation, different types of massage, live music, circus acts and a kids tent.

Leah Katia, from local company In Touch Body Awareness, is the founder of Raw Fest.

Leah said: “The event is aimed at people who care about their health and healthy eating/lifestyle alongside amazing food, but perhaps don’t know much about the concept of raw food/conscious eating. Not only are there a wide range of health benefits and delicious gourmet dishes, raw food can be more cost effective.”
