On September 3rd, 2010, Lower Lonsdale residents and artists Geremie Voigt & Kyla Rawlyns made their dreams a reality by being the first Organic, Vegan, Raw Cafe on the North Shore and opened the doors to Buddha-Full.

Both originally from Vancouver Island, they wanted to create a space where everyone could relax and enjoy a laid back west coast environment. They have pieced together natural elements, developed an overall theme and collected various re-claimed items.

Buddha-Full is an eclectic mix of salvaged pieces including church pews, stained glass, industrial spools, and the iconic ''Yellow Bike in the Window.'' In under a year it has become an inspiring eco oasis in the community.
