We have 2 lists – Items that don’t require pre-ordering and items that do. For the items that do, please give us a couple days notice. Remember, we close early on December 24th at 5pm for Christmas Eve so you must pick up your items before then!

New Smoothie Bowl Menu is here!

Our team has been hard at work creating new, flavorful, colorful, healthy and delicious smoothies and smoothie bowls, and they are finally here!

Let us introduce you to our new Smoothie Bowl flavors.



Mighty Matcha
Made with Amoda Tea’s first harvest matcha green tea, this smoothie bowl is full of antioxidants and offers a nutritious kick! We’ve kept it simple using creamy banana and coconut milk, so our quality matcha is the star of the show. We’ve topped this smoothie bowl with banana and strawberry slices, blueberries, rolled oats and cacao nibs. This bowl is certainly a great way to start off your day.

West Coast Majik
Inspired by the waters that surround us on the West Coast, this smoothie uses E3 Live’s Blue Majik Powder to achieve the beautiful blue color. Blue Majik is a superfood rich in vitamin B12, vitamin A and iron. We’ve topped this smoothie bowl with blueberries, kiwi, cacao nibs and coconut shreds.

Cacao Kapow!
For the chocolate lovers everywhere! Cacao Kapow uses both raw cacao powder and raw cacao paste to achieve a rich chocolatey flavor. Combined with the creaminess of banana and almonds, this smoothie is a decadent chocolate dream. Topped with banana slices, cacao nibs, coconut shreds, almonds and shaved cacao paste. Enjoy as the best breakfast ever or as a delicious, light dessert.

Pink Haze
This bright raspberry smoothie is refreshing and fruity, made extra vibrant with nutritious beetroot powder. Topped with almonds, cacao nibs, raspberries, cacao paste and coconut flakes.

These Smoothie Bowls are currently being served all day during for our launch. Come by between 9am-8pm any day of the week to give them a try. We’d love to hear your feedback and have you share your bowl on social media, making sure to tag us: @eternalabundance

Grocery & Meal Delivery and Personal Shopping Services

UPDATE:
Due to Covid restrictions relaxing and now that people are able to safely shop for their own groceries, we have seen a plummet in the use of our delivery service, so we have opted to end this service. If you and your loved ones are ever in need, please reach out to us and we’ll see what we can do to help.

Welcome to our new services – Grocery and Meal Delivery / Personal Shopping

Online Sale for Canada Day

This long weekend we hope you can take a walk in nature and observe the birds, waterways, plants and grand forests, and to reflect on your good fortune to live in a peaceful, clean country. At the same time we ask you to remember that our country needs to follow its obligations to mitigate climate change, and each of us can practice this 3x each day with what we choose to put on our plates. Choosing organic and plant-based foods supports your health, farmer and community health, bee health, soil biodiversity and health, and compassion towards animals.

We thank you for supporting healthy farming practices and supporting the little stores like us who are trying our absolute darndest to provide sustainably-sourced foods from local organic farms when the season permits, who limit the amount of food that goes to waste with our cafe-grocery combination (more on that later), who recycle and compost absolutely everything we can (except for rubberbands and twist ties, which we sometimes pass along to the local school for their after-school art programs), and who package 95% of our grocery offerings in biodegradable bags or returnable glass jars. We really appreciate your patronage, and hope that you will share it with your friends, family and neighbours.

This long weekend we are offering a sale on our online store for 10% off to encourage you stock up on healthy nutritious foods. Visit the shop at eternalabundance.ca/shop and use code HAPPYCANADADAY19 at checkout. The sale runs June 28 thru July 2.

Happy long weekend!
