Everyone is hip to the healing power of plants, and I want to make it easy and delicious for people who’ve decided to treat their bodies well.
|
What inspired you to open this place? |
Our inspiration was to create healthy, delicious food that was free of any animal products, refined sugars and gluten.
|
|
Our three-day, feel good fast cleanse. It’s a great way to quickly feel lighter and brighter, and people can fit it in mid-week before re-toxing on the weekend.
|
What’s your most sought-after juice cleanse? | All three of our juice cleanses do very well, but most people like the beginner and intermediate. The beginner has a meal and is an easy transition into cleansing if you’ve never done one. |
| Our super green fuel is kinda crazy in that it contains up to 20 ingredients. It’s a whole food blender drink you could live on. | What’s your craziest, most exotic type of juice? |
Our green immunity. It has over six pounds of organic leafy greens, [and it’s] a great way to meet your daily intake.

|
We send the daily love by bicycle out to the CBC for our favourite celeb client.
|
Any celeb customers? | We have fed everyone from Susan Sarandon, to Flea, Katie Holmes, Rachel McAdams, Michael Cera, Edward Norton and Sarah Silverman. |
| The phone starts ringing on Jan. 2 for bookings! A juice cleanse, whether for a day or for 10 days, can be a great way to shed some excess weight and to kickstart into healthier eating habits. | Does January get busy, what with everyone wanting to shed the pounds? | Yes, January tends to pick up. People want to shed the pounds and detox from all the “junk” they’ve consumed over the holidays. |
