I love this food! I've eaten it at various festivals, Bioneers Conference, etc. I love the shitake-greens crepe with pesto - delicious. Also the kale chips, Goddess burger, purple cabbage salad, and the desserts. [...] I appreciate that I can find food here that is gluten-free, dairy-free, meat-free and sugar-free. Healthy food that's also yummy.
