The Vital Life Cookbook

The Vital Life Cookbook is a completely self-published ebook, a comprehensive presentation of the Greenbelt's seasonal cuisine. Release date soon.

The Vital Life Cookbook is a project born out of the intention to strengthen local food literacy where I currently live, and empower those who resonate with it. I’m a health nut at heart, and I wanted to offer this compendium of some of my favourite regional recipes made with natural foods. You don’t need to be a chef to nourish yourself well! I hope it inspires you to welcome nature into your life, create connections, food sovereignty, and increased self-sufficiency with healthy, sustainable, delicious meals.

Nature bats last and has the power to unite us all in a divided world. Whether it’s hunting, fishing, bushcraft, gathering wild herbs, berries and mushrooms, or growing a garden to give back in return, we can live in harmony with the elements. In a world full of overstimulation and excess, it’s time to return to the basics. Nourish yourself and live an expansive, creative and fulfilling life.

The Vital Life Cookbook embodies the synthesis of science and mysticism. Cooking with seasonal, regeneratively grown ingredients brings the UV light information from your latitude into your cells, and informs your metabolism, circadian clock, and more. May these recipes help rejuvenate your mind, body and soul, thriving in all circumstances.

Eat well, stay wild.
