Welcome to Pumpkinface! I am excited to be writing this first post in our blog, and I have intentions of making it a weekly event. Let's see how I get on!
Pumpkinface is a fledgling initiative that aims to supply vegans in Seoul with great food! It was inspired by the fact that I wanted to have healthier food options available, to treat my body better and to respect my environment a little more. It dawned on me that other people in Seoul might just feel the same! So far, the response to our initial efforts has been astounding, and I am very grateful for all the support and positivity we have received.
Maintaining a vegan or vegetarian diet in Korea is not always straightforward, so we're hoping to make your lives a little easier by providing freezer-friendly, ready-made meals. You no longer have to cook EVERY night! If you're omnivorous, you can find your Meatless Monday meal right here!
We use only the freshest produce from suppliers such as Veggie Hill (an amazing organic vegetable home-delivery service) and Sister's Garden, a community farming initiative that provides employment to elderly and/or disadvantaged women.
Right now, our meals are pick-up only - you can order via facebook or our website. We hope to implement a delivery system soon.
We are also very proud to be participating in community events this month such as Seoul Vegan Potluck's monthly get-together on the 19th and hosting Mama's Table at SPACE on the 27th. Please come and say hi!
All in all, it has been an exciting month since our launch party in December! Thank you again for your support - looking forward to an amazing 2013. Wishing you all a happy, healthy and productive New Year!
