Brand Ambassador

Founded in 2016, Vegetable and Butcher is an early-stage food-tech startup making healthy eating remarkably simple—fresh, flavorful, locally prepared meals and functional beverages delivered directly to your doorstep. We have delivered 500,000 meals to health-conscious individuals and families throughout the Washington, D.C. area, with an eye towards scale and expansion into other geographies.

We are a passionate, crafty, farm-to-plate-loving team on a mission to help people [re]establish a more meaningful, more responsible, lasting relationship with wholesome and nourishing food. And we are revolutionizing how fresh, nutritious, high-quality food is purchased, manufactured, and delivered at scale.
