While many tables feature a traditional centerpiece, please remember the real stars of the season: the turkeys who are now safe and thriving at animal sanctuaries. ThanksVegan gives us a chance to celebrate the vibrant lives of these intelligent, social, and curious birds.

Imagine a turkey named Spirit or Romeo (see above link) getting to spend their holiday dust-bathing, strutting proudly, and sharing a meal of squash and berries with their friends. Not being slaughtered as a baby for our mere pleasure. That is the essence we celebrate—a beautiful opportunity to honor the spirit of thankfulness while extending our circle of compassion to all beings.

We get to enjoy incredible, innovative, and deeply satisfying food—from savory roasts and vibrant sides to decadent, dairy-free pies. Eating vegan is anything but restrictive! Every plant-based meal we share is a powerful statement for animal welfare, our planet, and our health. It feels good to align our actions with our values, creating a shared experience that brings us all closer.

To every host who spent hours prepping a cruelty-free feast, to every guest who proudly brought a delicious vegan side, and to everyone who is considering or enjoying a plant-based meal today—thank you. You are normalizing compassion and showing the world how truly joyful and abundant a kinder holiday can be. Be sure to download your FREE
