Would Tera and Amy DARE to make such a BOLD and DRAMATIC statement?? Oh yes! Oh yes, they definitely would!! If Hallmark Can, So Can We. The Raw Divas Boldly Declare That AUGUST 15th, Shall be hereforth Known As... INTERNATIONAL GREEN SMOOTHIE DAY!!! Mark it in your calendars, write it in the windows and plaster it all over the headlines of newspapers around the world!!
Friday, July 4th, Independence Day. Hi there, Gorgeous! I can't even imagine how you must have stumbled across this page or what on Earth you think of us for making such a statement, but here's the thing: Unlike some certain greeting card manufacturers and chocolate companies you might know, we're not out to increase more consumerism in the name of a national holiday. In fact, it's quite the reverse. We're actually, I know this sounds idealistic, but we're actually looking to change the state of health on this planet and save some whales while we're at it! Allow us to explain ourselves, my dear... There are A LOT of sick people in the world! And you know what... It really doesn't need to be that way. The Kleenex box does NOT need to be a standard household item!! When was the last time you looked out to nature and saw a beautiful deer or rabbit with a boogery nose? Or an antelope with arthritis? The secret to health isn't complicated. Everybody is out there buying the next great miracle potion, e-book or super-charged cosmic supplement, and they're all spending way too much money on information they really don't need. When we look to nature, solutions are simple. If the "key" to health requires an investment of $3000 into fancy kitchen appliances, or intensely laborioius kitchen projects, or super expensive supplements, and if everywhere people look people are arguing about the "right" way to do it, or claiming you need to spend a fortune on superfoods to suceed, then... ...HOW ON EARTH ARE WE EVER GOING TO GET THE WORLD TO CONSIDER A "RAW FOOD" DIET?? And, that's where YOU and GREEN SMOOTHIES come in! You see, we realized that if we really want to make a difference out there, we're going to have to find a program that can meet a few basic requirements: We want something that ANYONE can afford, pronounce and access easily.
We don't want money to get in the way of good health, and the truth is that if you have access to fresh fruits, vegetables, greens, raw nuts and seeds, then that's all you need to worry about! The Green Queen's 3 Day Challenge is only $5, and you get to invite a friend for free!! Besides, we give 60% of the profits to a vegan crew of vegan whale-saving salors! In terms of simplicity, most people already know what a smoothie is. (Unfortunately, they're used to it being served with protein powders and sweet syrups!) Most people are also pretty accustomed to eating salads, spinach, etc. so that's not foreign. But not many people out there know that the two can be combined for amazing health benefits!! Finally, and most importantly, we need something that the raw gurus of the world can agree upon!
And it's sad to say it, but even though we're all committed to great health and raw food, we're diluting our power by having so many different messages. And some of us out there are even arguing about who's "right" and who's "wrong". *sigh* Whether you're into the hairy arm pit version of raw foods, or the chic, fine dining gourmet raw food, you're still a rare and noble crusader for better health and we should be celebrating that about each other. The world needs to know about Green Smoothies and we can band together to create something big enough to inspire the world to improve their health and their lives. There's power in numbers and if we really do want to make a difference in the world, then we're going to have to find something we can agree upon. We don't think there is only ONE right way to do raw food! As far as we can see, the consensus is that GREEN SMOOTHIES are undeniably a powerful, simple, healthy food and the results of people who eat them range from positive to down-right miraculous.
Calling all sprouters, juicers, and supplement poppers... Calling the fruit lovers and avocado gobblers... Calling all those who blend, chop, dehydrate and spiralize, too! We don't care what path you walk, we just want you to get on board and celebrate the simplicity of nature and the vibrant abundance of health that is possible with everyday foods from your local grocery store!! **Special Message To Raw Food Enthusiasts** Whether you believe in the karmic, cosmic vortex of cacao, or you just like to nibble on dandelions and forage in your neighbor's yard, we still applaud your interest in Raw Foods. We've all seen the proof of what Green Smoothies can do, and the one thing that all the raw foodists out there seem to agree on is that Green Smoothies WORK! And that's when we got to thinking, we need a special day, where the people of the world, can unite in the names of simplicity! affordability! empowerment! health! and GREEEEEN SMOOTHIES!! We were sitting in our respective offices, thinking about Mother's Day and Family Day and Earth Day and Vegetarian Day... and so on and so on and so on... And we said to ourselves, "HEY! Who decides this stuff? I mean, who just randomly gets to decide what day is Earth Day? or Vegetarian Day? And why can't we do it, too?" So, being divas, we simply didn't see any reason whatsoever that we shouldn't boldly announce the new International Day of Celebration! That's right. Easy as that. A snap of the fingers, a swing of the hips and voilà, here you have it: On August the 15th, 2008, women, men, children and pets around the world will be participating in the First International Green Smoothie Day Challenge!!

Have you noticed the number of 
The number of expensive supplements and superfoods out there can be awfully intimidating. Goji, maca and other imported powerfoods as buzz words mean that ordinary people, like us, quite frankly, can't afford to be "raw foodists"!
Let's face it, if you already know a bit about raw foods, then you've already realized that there are a whole lot of
