Tags:Smoothies, Stinging Nettles.
Some of the many health benefits of Stinging Nettles include, high levels of iron (high enough to cure anemia), high levels of vitamins A & C, high levels of chlorophyll and it’s a complete protein. As if that wasn’t awesome enough – they actually taste good!
But I know what you really want to know, does it sting you?? Stinging Nettles do in fact sting, so you cannot touch them with your bare hands. Not to worry though, we’ll handle them for you and once they are blended up with mangos, bananas, lime, ginger and apple juice, not only will they absolutely not sting you, but they’ll refresh you and energize you and make you stronger than popeye!
Nettle smoothies on special at Zen Zero til the Nettle season is over (that’s right they’re locally grown too!)

Now serving Raw Quiche! NO, it’s not raw eggs, it is 100% vegan using cashews and agar, which is a type of seaweed which thickens and firms everything up so it’s sliceable and yummy! The agar is heated to get it to do it’s magic, but everything else is raw. This weeks Quiche is marinated mushroom and spinach. $6.95 a slice or add a 1/2 salad of your choosing for $10.95.

Looks like we’ve finished our multi purpose room just in time to house this Friday’s going away party fundraiser for Tarah who will be leaving on November 1st for Japan to help save the Dolphins who are slaughtered by the thousands there every year.
The party this Friday will have live bands and a silent auction with items from many wonderful businesses including Raw rose, Second Page book store, Cumberland Massage, Backdoor Gallery, Winds of change, Euroscape Spa and of course Zen Zero to name just a few. All proceeds to go to sending Tarah to Japan. The silent auction items will be on display all day at Zen Zero so even if you can’t make the event in the evening, you can still support this wonderful cause and maybe win yourself something awesome as well.
The party will take place between 6:30 and 9:30pm and Zen Zero will be open the entire time for all your refreshment and food needs.
Check out the Facebook event page for more details.
See you there!
