low Juicery started as a healthy grab and go Juice, Smoothie and Raw Food cafe. In just a short time, we realized that people in the Cowichan Valley needed an organic food restaurant, and we expanded our cafe into a restaurant. Our menu began to grow as our team added creative vegan and new raw food choices to the menu. When designing our menu we kept in mind that people enjoy comfort foods, so we added healthy and organic dishes such as Bagels, Quesadillas, Chili, Pizzas, vegan “Butter Chicken, Pad Thai and more. Many of our treats and desserts are a take on people’s favourites, however they are all organic, grain free, plant based superfood ingredients with no toxic refined sweeteners or preservatives. Seasonal dishes. Chili: Warming Vegan Chili filled with beans, spices, potatoes, Moroccan Stew: Another hot dish with carrots, sweet potatoes and yams, raisins and lentils.

I used herbs such as ashwagandha for my adrenal glands, milk thistle, He Shou Wu for organ support and Schizandra, citrus peels and lacuma for my kidneys. During this healing journey I knew I wanted to help other people who have been in a health situation like myself and this is what led to the start of Glow. I love these herbs so much that we use them at Glow in our food and treats and they can be added to any smoothie for an extra boost.
