No meat? No problem. 🍔🌱

Happy National Veggie Burger Day to our plant-based friends, our "sometimes-vegetarian" friends, and anyone who just appreciates a really good vegetarian burger.

We believe everyone deserves that perfect, messy, delicious burger experience. That’s why you can swap in a veggie patty on any of our burgers. It’s got all the flavor, all the protein, and none of the FOMO.

Rainbow spring rolls make a great appetizer for a party (Pride parade tailgating, anyone?) or a light meal.

Factory farms are a blight on the agricultural landscape, they are known, heavy industrial polluters that create negative impacts in the communities where they operate, and they can be unsafe environments for humans to work. (Not to mention the misery that they cause the animals stuck in the system!) If you travel through Sunnyside you can see (and smell) large-scale dairy operations and feed lots that resemble nothing like the peaceful, pastoral life we all want for farm animals. Now, there is a proposal to incentivize factory farming in Yakima by establishing a factory farm gas facility to capture the emissions created by factory farms. It would be the largest of its kind in the nation. Please consider sending a message to the Yakima Regional Clean Air Agency to encourage them to oppose this facility. https://actionbutton.nationbuilder.com/share/SPK-QElDQkA=

There are some great Public Workshops coming up at the Sustainable Living Center this year. The topics include food preservation, gardening, composting, hydroponics, and even a "Better Eating for You and the Earth" event that will look at the benefits of the plant-based diet. If you're looking to incorporate more plant-based ingredients into your diet or just want to learn more about what "plant-based" even means, join Plant-Based Walla Walla and other community members at the "Better Eating" workshop. Being vegetarian or vegan is not required! We hope to see you there! 🥑🍓💚💪

The SLC offers educational public workshops on energy savings, renewable energy, and conservation of resources. Recent workshops included information on water conservation, composting, solar energy and toxic free cleaning kits.
