Soup Garden
Salt the Radish are supporting St. John’s Church N4 in their plans to develop a community garden to grow vegetables for their soup kitchen. We are a collection point for plastic bottles which will eventually be used to build a green house. We’re also going to lend a hand at their first community dig event where we will be preparing the site for growing vegetables. All are welcome. The event is on 22 October 2019 and runs from 11am until 6pm.
Salt the Radish are holding a Root and Heart Chakra Yoga Brunch with Kelly Craig Yoga Flow on Saturday 13 July 2019 from 11am to 1.30pm at Islington Ecology Centre. Throughout this session you will discover how to tune into the ‘subtle’ energy centre in your body know as Chakras through a sequence of yoga poses, breathing techniques and relaxing essential oils followed by a lunch focussing on foods which are linked to the Root and Heart Chakras.
There will be flow yoga practice, group meditation and a healthy vegan lunch.

Nobody Said It Was Easy... Yesterday Salt the Radish opened its doors for the first time to the hungry (hopefully) people of Finsbury Park. To say this has been a long journey is an understatement. I've been catering for yoga retreats and small events and dinners for a couple of years but the café plan has been bubbling around for much, much longer than that. I've had to overcome a few obstacles on the way and I'm not out of the woods yet. Come in for a coffee and maybe I'll bore you with the whole story. This means that for a...
Meditation and Mindfulness Part II We have just reached the end of Dale Farm Holiday's second Yoga and Mindfulness Retreat. A full weekend of relaxation and yoga. Salt the Radish provided a full bespoke vegetarian menu including vegan alternatives (for our favourite vegan, Alice). Dinner on Friday night was a roasted squash, shallot and feta salad followed by harissa roasted aubergine, pickled red onion and lentil salad, preserved lemon yoghurt and flatbreads. Dessert was a vegan chocolate mousse (don't tell anyone there's avocado in it, they'll never know). Saturday night we went Indian. Kale pakoras, onion salad and mint yoghurt...
