The Beautiful Farewell-Sendoff Marketplace Party for 720 Bathurst, location of Toronto Sprouts!! xox!

Rawlicious took over the Toronto Sprouts kitchen for the day. Here is Angus (he andTracy are owners of Rawlicious) with beautiful Erika who worked with me in the kitchen all day.

It was incredibly busy and we sold out.. we almost made it until closing time & had green smoothies at least to last till then. But it was soo busy which was really wonderful.

I have a lot of pictures.. so many special people and vendors in this amazing, vibrant, healthy community of conscious loving souls who have come together and joined here at Toronto Sprouts for the past few years. I felt all day like it was a big send off party.. us all coming together again and seeing people on & off all day coming through who I regularly saw while working at Toronto Sprouts. This is the last event to take place ..after hosting so, so many of them, at 720 Bathurst.

I actually had an emotional day.. I have to tell the story.

I came in & started prepping veggies and fruit and was busy in the kitchen doing my thing before opening and then close to 10am, when the marketplace opened, I came out and looked to the left and this may sound crazy & overly sentimental, but there was the Mexcan blanket over the counter and the clay pot filled with Tehate & I saw Michael and the chocosol group.. and all of a sudden I was waterfalls. wow, they were set up in the same place where they used to be when we worked together and I didn't expect it & ... I went to the office to pull myself together & wow, I honestly wasn't sure if I could go back out there.. maybe overly sentimental. and maybe just a flashback.

These guys and all you in the raw, healthy, yoga, natural, eco-friendly, you wonderful, wonderful group of people I am sooo blessed to have joined into, you/we have formed the most welcoming and beautiful community.. one that I feel and have felt from the minute I walked into 720 that I have been a part of for eons.. for lifetimes that we have been soul brothers and sisters.

& Thank you everyone who was at 720 and is part of this journey with me for being there on Saturday and for being here and a part of my heart. I am in love with all of you! & Saturday was a beautiful send off to a place that will always be so close to my heart.

..& now, we will just have to find a new place to congregate. xo!!!

This is a website we are just starting which now has some recently republished raw and health books from the early part of the last century. We found many of these books to contain invaluable information and thoughts on health from a raw and nutritional standpoint, but many of these books were photocopied or reproduced poorly, and so we decided to re-typeset them, clean them up, and offer them for sale at a lower price as well.

Michael Moon and Treforlutions

Rosie and Matieu of Chocosol, and Jeremy, in the middle, my soul brother who runs a parallel life with me, (altho from different generations - & we are from the same hometown!)

I am leaving this from a performance by Jeremy from a Chocolatada party, which was one of the best parties ever, with a great number and variety of incredible performers.. just one of the many, many special events which we enjoyed at 720!

~This co-motion happened during one of our New Moon Chocolatada! Jeremy has become an outstanding member of the 720 Experiment since the cacao induced Contagion on this night! ~
