We offer meals that are caringly prepared and presented with health and wellness in mind – lots of fresh fruit, vegetables, soups, salads, chicken, fish, and pork.
Menu options all include delicious healthy food choices and are as follows:
Regular Retreat Menu ~ Light Retreat Menu ~ Basic Vegetarian Menu
These options must be indicated by a “group” as we cannot accommodate all individual diets and dietary restrictions. We will work with some “group” dietary requests and inquiries about dietary needs should be directed to our operations manager at the time of registration.
PLEASE NOTE: We do ask for any major medically determined allergies to be disclosed at the time of registration by a group leader. We will do our best to be mindful of medical allergies but we cannot accommodate all food “sensitivities”. Participants must be responsible for their own intake of food items. We will do our best to inform guests of our food ingredients as needed. If an entire group has a particular dietary request, please inquire and we will let you know if we can meet your needs prior to registration. Due to our remote location and the distance to shopping areas, we are unable to accommodate last minute requests. Guests may use the kitchenette refrigerator in The Wolf Lodge if they would like to store personal food items. 
Due to health and safety regulations at our facility ALL guests and visitors are asked to remain outside of our prep kitchen area in the Casa Mandala at all times. The pantry and refrigerators in the Casa Mandala are for staff use ONLY and guests should ask for assistance when in need of food and kitchen items.
