Our Food Philosophy

At hOMe Grown we love nourishing people on all levels. Infusing hints of ancient wisdom with a splash of creative food goodness, we will ensure that your next offering is satiating to the body, mind and spirit.

Our ancestors ate according to seasonally availability. We honour this timeless approach, connecting with the Earth and our natural environment. Globally inspired flavours and locally sourced ingredients help us to embrace our surroundings and create memorable meals.

Much of the produce served at our summer and autumn meals on Vancouver Island is lovingly grown on our farm in the Cowichan Valley. We plant Heritage and open-pollinating seeds and allow ‘volunteers’ to grow wild. This guarantees a garden continuously filled with the nutritious wonders of our natural environment.

Most people’s digestion responds positively to the high nutrient content of sprouted & fermented foods. Live foods ensure we are provided with the life-enriching enzymes essential for digestion and assimilation. Only fresh, Local and Organic ingredients are used in the hOMe Grown Kitchen.

Living Foods

hOMe Grown Catering incorporates many fresh “Living Food” dishes that we mindfully prepare for you with love. We introduce super foods such as Seaweed, Hemp & Chia Seeds, Raw Cacao and fermented foods like Sauerkraut and Keifir Soda to encourage optimal digestion and whole body nourishment. These philosophies are combined with Ayurvedic concepts to fuel your body with the most nutritional and balanced ingredients.

We believe in supplying the tools to enhance your daily life through proper nutrition. If requested, a cooking class can be offered to share simple preparation of healthy meals and take home recipes with your guests.

With a cup full of love we look forward to sharing with you and your guests!

Words of Praise

"Every year the guests come to the Retreat for the yoga and surfing, and leave talking about Shani’s food!! Her description of the meal before she serves it, always leaves the guests drooling. They realize the deep passion she has for serving high quality food, that will nourish your body, and give you sustained energy."

– Risto Duggan, Founder of RAD Yoga Gear and Practice Breathe & Surf Yoga Retreats

"I have had my workshops catered before and Shani by far surpassed the other companies. Not only was Shani very professional, on time, effective, and creative, her food was exquisitely delicious while being very very very healthy - rare indeed!!! "

– Saida Desilets, Founder of The Desilets Method for Radiant Living

"The food provided to our youth group throughout our weekend in Tofino was delicious, healthy and inspiring. It was clear how much hard-work and thought was put into each meal to ensure it was sustainable, local and nourishing. It was a pleasure to have hOMe Grown Living Foods join us for our summit, and I look forward to having them nourish us again in the future."

– Kate MacMillan, Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society

"It was a pleasure and honor to have hOMe Grown cater our yoga Retreat of 20+ yogis. Shani exhibited such grace in handling the many dietary restrictions and food preferences and we were astounded by her creativity in designing a menu that nourished everyone. Each meal includes several dishes and the quality of food was exceptional. Shani's calm and radiant presence in the kitchen inspired us!"
