We include dark leafy greens, cruciferous
vegetables, dark orange vegetables,
sea vegetables such as arame and kombu,
and mushrooms such as shiitake, maitake and
trumpet royale in some form each week.

These foods are extremely nutrient dense and have proven supportive benefits for those who are ill, particularly with cancer. We also cook with a wide variety of organic beans and grains, including quinoa, millet, wild rice and brown rice. We strive to choose foods that are alkalinizing for the body.

Here’s what you won’t find in
any of your food: white flour products,
white or refined sugar, or chemical additives.

Our desserts are made with whole grains and whole sweeteners such as organic raw honey and organic maple syrup.

We are able to accommodate
a fairly wide range of dietary restrictions

including no poultry, no fish, no wheat or gluten, no dairy, no added sweeteners and no nightshades. We are also generally able to omit any vegetables which you either dislike or which you find difficult to digest.

Ceres clients receive three or four
complete dinners each week, a nourishing
soup, a main dish salad and a healthy dessert.

The Ceres Community Project also prepares a number of specialty foods that include herbs which have been shown to offer support for those who are ill. These foods include a potassium rich immune broth and our popular Vitality Truffles, a raw foods “truffle” that includes herbs that support the body’s immune system and ability to adapt to stress. We also prepare our own sauerkrauts and encourage clients to include a small amount of these fermented food in their daily diet as one of the most effective ways of supporting digestive health.
