This past weekend part of our team attended the #AVASummit in DC. It was amazing to have the opportunity to speak about plant-based and animal welfare policy and to meet so many passionate animal advocates. π
The MAJORITY of Californians voted in favor of Prop 12 to ban cruel crates for mother pigs. BUT, the #pork industry has been fighting this measure. π‘ NEXT WEEK, the supreme court will hear arguments on the case. π
β RT if you want to #ProtectProp12.

Happy birthday to @AdvocacyCollab founder & compassionate animal hero, @AmandaTrenchard!
She fights for animals every single day and her drive to create a better world never ceases to amaze me. Cheers to many more trips around the sun and much more advocacy for the voiceless! π
I have loved volunteering to organize this festival the past few years.
The volunteers we have to help with the festival day-of are crucial.
If youβre in Richmond on September 17th, we would love to have your help at the festival!
Hey #RVA π Weβre looking for some incredible volunteers to help us out on the day of the festival. π
To say thank you, our volunteers will receive a free shirt and $5 in Veggie Bucks to spend at the festival ($10 if you bring an old shirt).

This past weekend our team attended the #TakingActionForAnimals conference. π
Our booth gave attendees the opportunity to learn about the cruelty farm animals are forced to face, what our team is doing to stop it, and how they can help.
Thank you to everyone who stopped by. π
My team has been working on this Scorecard for months and I'm so proud of the result. π€
There are many food service companies that are doing incredible things when it comes to plant-forward and sustainable meals. But, there are also many companies who aren't.

Check out our new Protein Sustainability Scorecard to see which companies are protecting the environment by offering climate-friendly, plant-based menu items and which food service companies are not. π±π
