From Farmer's Market Roots to a Thriving Brick-and-Mortar
Every business has a beginning, but some beginnings are more humble, more hopeful, and more deeply rooted than others. The story of The Rooted Vegan didn’t start with a storefront, a sign on the door, or a polished menu—it started at the Farmer's Market.
A Seed Planted and Grown
In those early days, The Rooted Vegan was built table by table, conversation by conversation. Surrounded by fresh produce, local makers, and a community curious about plant-based food, we showed up with a simple mission: to serve wholesome, thoughtfully made vegan food that brought people together. We didn’t know exactly where the road would lead, but we knew what we stood for—food made with intention, integrity, and heart.
A Gathering Place
What began as a small Farmer's Market booth has become a gathering place. A place where food is shared, conversations happen, and community is built. We’ve weathered challenges, celebrated milestones, and stayed committed to our values through it all. The journey hasn’t always been easy, but it has always been worth it.
"The Rooted Vegan is a testament to the power of community and delicious, plant-based food. We're so grateful for their presence in Angola!"
