    I appreciate all of the positive comments about Bliss Fest 09! We have one whole year to plan for the next one which is much better than two weeks. :) We'll work out the kinks, tweak many others, add amazing ideas, etc. And it will feature an even broader vision bringing together like-minded conscious individuals together for a Bliss Fest Celebration of "conscious living" for all. Thanks to everyone that worked together in that last two weeks when we moved Bliss to the park! Everyone involved played an integral role to accomplish this event. We had great vendors and some new ones emailing me at the last minute. I couldn't get to all but I am putting together a list of interested parties for next year. I'll be sending out post-fest information soon. Thank you all again!! Love and Bliss, Maureen

    I wasn't able to stay for more than an hour or so (previous committment), but thoroughly enjoyed my short time there. I visited many vendors and took full advantage of the wonderful food that was being offered. I even took some home for dinner. The best part was that my husband and one of my sons joined me. My son who usually won't try anything I make, actually tried the chili, ice cream and a chocolate, mystic tonic and enjoyed them all. One step forward..... It was a fun time and I look forward to spending more time at the 3rd annual Bliss Fest! Thanks to everyone who spent so much time organizing and making this a positive experience!

    It was awesome! Great to see the Stokes-Monarch team again too! Thanks Maureen for all of your hard work!
  • Maureen "Reenie" Carmack
    A really good festival, it's the beginning of much greater things to come. Maybe next year we could have it in the Fall, when the temps will be some cooler?
  • Natalie George
    Amazing! Felt like the Raw Spirit Fest in Sedona!

  • Roberta McMillian
    Fun meeting and talking to friends. Speakers were from all over the country, I have some of their books, so it was good to be inspired. Great to see people of all ages, young and old have the same interest as I do in diet and health.
  • Gina
    Most fun and positive time I've had in a long while! :)
  • Ann
    Perfectly scenic!
  • Susie
    As someone new to raw food, I was attending for information and support in beginning to prepare food in this manner. I got that and more... I met several women whom I will stay in contact with; as well, it's exciting to hear about the possiblities for the KC area in having more available for those making these conscious healthy living choices. Congratulations!

    I arrived around 2:30 and missed a lot of the presenters that I had hoped to hear. Would have enjoyed more raw food to taste . I did find a lot of good information. Thank you for all your hard work in planning the event. Peace, Lisa

    I was disappointed in the small number of vendors selling organic products & goods. The food was great.
