Healthy Gourmet To-Go delivers 100% delicious, organic, cruelty-free, gluten-free, vegan, ready to eat meals right to your door each week. We do all the work. All you do is order your Bag of Specials, reheat and eat. Reap all the benefits a plant-based, organic diet has to offer for your body, the planet and the animals!

This is Roni with Dylan, a 2 week old rescued baby Holstein calf, lucky to be living out his life at the wonderful Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary as an ambassador for all veal calves on factory farms who are stolen from their mothers immediately after birth. Since they are useless to the dairy industry as well as useless for beef, they are crated, immobilized and slaughtered at about 16 weeks of age for veal. This lucky guy is here for you to meet in hopes that if you've already sworn off veal, you'll tell a friend who still eats it to stop! To meet Dylan and loads of other great rescued critters being loved and cared for by Jenny Brown and Doug Abel, or for more info go to: www.woodstockfas.org.

Most people tell us their Bag of Specials lasts way more than 10 meals especially when supplemented throughout the week with salads.

We deliver to Ulster County all the way down thru Westchester County and into Manhattan.
