PURE HELLO 2006
We were lucky enough to spend New Years Eve on Sydney Harbour underneath that giant glowing red heart, emanating love! What a way to start the new year. We are so lucky to be living in such a beautiful city.
PURE COOKING CLASSES
So to follow on with the theme of love we are thrilled to announce that HOLLY DAVIS is coming to PURE and we are MAKING LOVE in the kitchen.
Holly’s vision is to feed people love, her vehicle is the food she creates and shares with all who wish to partake.
Holly has been a pioneer and advocate of Organic wholefoods for over 20 years. Her style and view have transformed from the die-hard macrobiotic vegan that she was when she co founded Iku Wholefoods, to her inclusive, creative, real food style today.
Holly writes the health pages for Federal Publishing’s Notebook Magazine, her cookbook “Nourish” adorns all the best kitchens in Australia, Britain and the USA.
Holly's classes promise to be inspriring, fun and informative and of course no one goes home hungry!
