Dear Planthropists,
Creating beauty is to live. This past 5+ years have been a dream. With all its challenges, from a full blown global crisis to losing my dad, to growth, birth, postpartum and all that is in between, the most magical and powerful part of it all is the mission and impact Planthropie have created and the beauty she will leave with you all. I had a vision for Planthropie and our community, but visions do change and evolving life paths have called for this pivot.
THANK YOU, to everyone that I met, thank you for all the love, memories, connections and friendships along the way, this journey has been a wild one. Thank you for believing in Planthropie and our mission to create food as art and medicine.
From my family to yours, I would love to say goodbye (for now) to each and everyone. We’re celebrating you all and Planthropie starting this weekend Saturday Oct 5th with a Grand Goodbye. Planthropie storefront will be closing on Sat October 12th or until sold out.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
"Planthropie is in my top five places to get food in the world. I have honestly never had better cheese (think cheese spread) in my entire life, vegan or otherwise. Plus the mini cakes I've tried so far are out of this world!"

"Forget the fact that it's vegan, it doesn't matter and should not sway your decision to indulge in these finely crafted desserts. They are addicting, beautifully presented & well balanced in texture & flavors"
Brian C.
"Planthropie is incredible! In addition to their food being gluten, dairy, soy & refined sugar free, it is vegan, organic, and raw. More importantly, it is the best tasting dessert & cheese I have ever had. I am not vegan, but Planthropie's desserts are better than the "real" thing"

OUR FOUNDER | ARTIST
RUA FRANCIS OSHANA
I’m Rua, an entrepreneur, mom, plants chef, educator & a passionate advocate of food as art & medicine. From medical school to fleeing war in Iraq, my journey started in preventative health and nutritional counseling in Canada, then transitioned into marketing as I relocated to the US. What started as a necessary solution to my son’s-dairy allergy, quickly sparked a conscious exploration to create pure and dairy-free cheese & dessert alternatives for my family. Planthropie was born & quickly transformed into our flagship home in 2020 offering living plant based cheese and dessert. Planthropie bridges my background in medicine, ancient wisdom, science & artistry.
My mission is to showcase the beauty and wholeness of food, to create phenomenal alternatives to traditional cheese and dessert without compromising ingredients, health, flavor and experience. At Planthropie, we’re breaking through old paradigms and birthing a new breed of living cheese and dessert that are kind to your mind, body and soul.
plant good, eat kind.
