Meals
The menu at the retreat has been devised with the aim of endeavouring to follow the Prophetic Diet, thus providing students with nourishing and wholesome food. The greatest effort is taken to purchase all food items from carefully selected local and regional suppliers and to use, as much as possible, seasonal products that are healthy and environmentally friendly. Great care is taken in trying to ensure that all food that is sourced is both organic and fair trade.
