Hi friends!As you may know, Vegan Haven is Seattle's all-vegan, non-profit grocery store which benefits Pigs Peace Sanctuary (home to 200 rescued pigs and their friends). We are humbled and grateful to serve the incredible local vegan community, compassionate travelers, and the veg-curious. We carry vegan cooking and baking essentials, delicious and convenient meal options, a vast selections of vegan meats and cheeses, accessories and gifts, and all the sweets a hungry vegan could ask for! Our store is powered by volunteers who help us keep costs down for customers, making veganism affordable to all while ensuring that critical funds can go to support Pigs Peace's life saving work (read about the sanctuary here ).As we opened the store on Monday, September 14th, we discovered that one of our freezers had called it quits. While we wish we'd been given some notice, we thank the dearly departed freezer for his/her service over the past decade. We did lose quite a bit of edible merchandise that had thawed (though the pigs at the sanctuary were happy to enjoy a tremendous feast of the freezer's contents, making sure nothing went to waste- the Vegan Haven way).To continue offering the vast selection of frozen items that our customers LOVE (vegan meats, vegan seafood, calzones, pizzas, instant meals, ice creams, etc), we need to purchase a new freezer for the store. Even with the most affordable options, this cost puts a big strain on our resources. Thus, we are putting a request out there into the universe and to our amazing supporters in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. If you love Vegan Haven, pigs, and your local vegan community, and if you're able to chip in a bit toward our expenses, we'll just love you forever. And you're unable to help right now, we'll still love you forever.Any and all support is so very appreciated. This store is YOUR store! Thanks for all the love.
