Photos from the VegLife Vegan Market!
The VegLife vegan market yesterday was so much fun and such a whirlwind of new faces! Thank you to everyone who stopped by. We sold out of picnic boxes, Steve kept the tent from blowing away, and you all were just so kind & so enthusiastic to support all of us at the market. It was a fantastic time and a day l’ll always remember! We hope to see you all again at one of our weekly pick ups ❤️

A Decade in Veganism
I realized the other day that June marks my 10 year vegan anniversary 🤯From a young age I’ve felt so connected to all animals. I’m talking like, I was the kid sitting and talking to ants. 😂 I don’t believe animals are here for me to consume, and the more time I’ve spent building relationships with them, & just out in nature watching life happen, the more it reaffirms that for me.But the relationships we have with food are complex and our dietary choices are personal and filled with history. I know going vegan overnight isn’t going to happen for...

About the Mickle Center
I love the Mickle Center Shared Use Community Kitchen, the commercial kitchen we work out Throughout the week it's bustling - 25+ other businesses work here too, including meal prep services, caterers, bakers, local producers, farmers market vendors... it's been perfect for us, and it's fantastic to meet so many people also pursuing what they love! I reserve the shared kitchen in advance, and don't have the flexibility to cook or store many items in the fridge outside of those reserved hours. This is why we have a pick up window (Monday evenings from 5-6:30 pm) - so we can...

Making New World Burgers
This is one step in the process of making our New World Burgers! While mushrooms + mashed beans + grains don’t exactly look that pretty, 😆 the end result is a deliciously satisfying burger. It works well for a classic meatless burger with ketchup, mustard, pickles & vegan cheese!People often think vegan food is limiting. But when I started to play around with simple whole food ingredients like beans and grains to transform them into other products using different spice blends, I realized how much opportunity there is. The options for flavor & texture combinations are really limitless. ✨ If...
