You’ll recognize the VegKentucky page at Facebook as being artfully repurposed from its previous identity as V-Grits. At the end of December, the Courier Journal’s Amanda Hancock explained why: Owner of recently-closed vegan restaurant launches new nonprofit: What to know.
When Kristina Addington announced her popular vegan restaurant would close, she encouraged followers to stay tuned for a “new project.”
Addington shut down V-Grits after at Logan Street Market in Shelby Park on Dec. 15 after 10 years.
A few days later, Addington announced the launch of VegKentucky, a nonprofit “dedicated to promoting plant-based living,” according to a press release.
A mission statement appears at the non-profit’s web site.
Through workshops, outreach programs, and local partnerships, we aim to make plant-based options an accessible staple for every Kentucky resident, fostering a healthier and more compassionate future for our state.
And there’s more.
Crafted by professional plant-based chefs, VegKentucky’s Meal Service has launched in Louisville! Featuring a rotating menu of ready-to-eat meals with diverse cuisines, and offering breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack options. The service aims to make delicious, plant-based meals convenient and accessible for individuals and families alike.
