Giving Thanks Differently: Why We Adopted a Flock This Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving has always been a holiday about connection, gathering around the table, sharing gratitude, and reflecting on the communities and causes that matter most. This year, our team wanted to celebrate with a little extra compassion, so we chose to virtually adopt a flock through Farm Sanctuary, a nonprofit dedicated to rescuing, rehabilitating, and providing lifelong care for farm animals in need.

Farm Sanctuary works tirelessly to protect animals from cruelty, advocate for better welfare practices, and educate the public on compassionate food choices. By virtually adopting a flock, we’re supporting feed, medical care, enrichment, and the safe habitats these animals deserve. For us, this initiative represents not just charity, but values, empathy, stewardship, and mindful consumption.

Our team is proud to support Farm Sanctuary’s mission and to spotlight the importance of ethical, sustainable decision-making. Whether you’re a kitchen operator, chef, educator, or just someone who loves great food, we encourage you to consider how small choices can add up to meaningful change.

This holiday season, we’re thankful for:

• The animals being cared for and protected

• The educators and advocates who raise awareness

• The opportunity to give back in a purposeful way

• The kitchens and customers who help us champion innovation responsibly

  
  

From our flock to yours, we hope your Thanksgiving is full of warmth, kindness, and memorable meals, turkey optional.
