Raw Food Takeout Service Now Available in Oakland


Raw Bay Area and Chef Heather Haxo Phillips is pleased to announce that local delivery of simply delicious living vegan food from Thrivin' Edibles will begin in our area on July 23!


Yay!
Happy Jumper

Starting July 23rd, every Friday afternoon, Chef Patti Searle of Thrivin' Edibles will deliver raw food made to order for you to Chef Heather's home in Oakland.

Imagine that you could have: Veggie Burgers and Coleslaw, Pizza, Basil Tomato Soup, Carrot Ginger Soup, Pumpkin Seed Rainbow Salad and Cherry Cobbler all made to order just for you!  Thrivin' Edibles also offers basic staples you need to get through the week including almond milk, bread, tortillas, coconut kefir, mayonnaise and cheeses too! You can check out this week's menu here.

I am thrilled to announce this partnership with Thrivin' Edibles.  Many of you might remember that a year ago we experimented with a to-go business and it was wildly successful.  Since then, we have been looking for new ways to bring fresh, raw delivered meals back to the East Bay. Chef Patti's food is nourishing, nutritious and delicious!

HERE IS YOUR CHANCE TO EAT MORE HEALTHY FOODS WITHOUT THE EXCUSE OF "I DON'T HAVE TIME"

To get started: email Chef Patti right now: chefpatti@thrivinedibles.com

Here are the specifics:
  • Each week's Chef Patti publishes a menu on the Thrivin' Edibles' website.
  • You can receive the menu a week ahead of time by signing up for the newsletter.  Sign up by emailing her right now.
  • Your order needs to be placed (via email or telephone) by no later than 6 am Thursday for each Friday's delivery.  Please be sure to note that you're part of Chef Heather's group.
  • Your order must be for at least $50, and a $7.50 delivery fee will also apply.
  • Payment via VISA or Mastercard is required at the time of your order.
  • You will receive a confirmation email from Thrivin' Edibles prior to delivery that includes the pick-up address.
  • You must pick up your order from Heather's home on 35th Avenue in the Laurel/Fruitvale District of Oakland between 2 pm and 9 pm on Friday; if you don't pick it up by 9 pm, you forfeit your order.  
  • No on-going commitment is required.  Try the food a few times, or order every week.
We're very excited about this opportunity - and we need to have at least 15 households participate in order to make it work!  First delivery:  July 23rd.

Chef Patti offers food for the single gal and large portions for a family and a party.  If there is anyone you know who's interested in trying out living foods, this may be a great way for them to do so.

We'll be trying this out for one month. Your suggestions and feedback are greatly appreciated.
