From our friends at Gwinganna Lifestyle Retreat on Gold Coast QLD Australia - In the rush of a fast-paced world, we can often forget to slow down and smell the zucchinis. At Gwinganna, we subscribe to the SLOW food philosophy which encourages a healthy and balanced diet comprising ingredients that are Seasonal, Local, Organic and Whole. The purpose of this food philosophy is to consume foods that are as close to their natural state as possible and ultimately maximise nutritional value.
We aim to change the way you think about awareness of what we’re putting in our bodies and the positive effect on digestion and assimilation of nutrients by the relaxed social experience of sharing a meal and connecting with one another.
Seasonal harvesting means that produce is at peak nutritional value and therefore better for our health.
In addition to these, eating SLOW foods also promotes sustainable agricultural practices, supports local food producers and very often uses less packaging. Gwinganna understands the abundance of health benefits and constructive environmental benefits of SLOW foods and have embraced the philosophy wholeheartedly in all of our menus since our inception.
