AZ Raw Food

Welcome to AZ Raw Food, based in Phoenix, Arizona!

We're the largest and most active raw food Meetup in Arizona and the fastest-growing one in America. We pride ourselves on being the most welcoming too!

Please join us for amazingly delicious and incomparably healthy food, fun and new-found friendship. It is for everyone who may be interested, not just the already committed pure raw foodist. (However, everything served at our events will be 100% raw!)

The original organizer, Asha Allen formerly owned the first raw superfoods store in North Texas where she hosted countless events featuring raw notables such as David Wolfe. Her co-organizer David Roth is the co-author of two raw food books by supermodel Carol Alt.

AZ Raw Food is now led by Kristen Taylor, a prominent figure in the raw food movement in the US, and the proprietor of BeeGreenFoods.com.

If you want to vicariously experience our gatherings, read the comments on the past Meetup pages, and check out the photos.

Who would have thought that this group would become such a HUGE success?!
