Our Vegan Kids Day

We just had our very first "Organic Class for Kids" at the restaurant this morning. One of our very loyal customers, Michelle, has been to Pizza Fusion a handful of times since we opened. She has been such an amazing help in setting up our menu to be very Vegan friendly... which "cheese" was the best for melting and flavor, etc.. We knew we had a great concept and even greater neighbors and customers when Michelle first walked in with a bag of her very own, home-shred of Follow Your Heart's Mozzarella Cheese alternative to put on her pizza. Normally thats breaking some kind of health-code rules, but we had just opened and as you know, Michael and I are 100% about customer input and feedback so we said "no problem!"

Somehow the conversation was started about having her daughter and possibly the children of some of the other Vegan parents come to the restaurant and make their very own Vegan pizza's. Michelle loved the idea and ran with it. With her help and the amzing support of the Vegan Parents & Kids meet-up group, our freshman outing was a success.

Approximately 8 kids showed up with their parents and they were treated to about an hour and a half of activities from getting behind the wheel and under the hood of our Hybrid delivery vehicles, to learning about the importance of Organic farming to making their very own personal Vegan pizza!

Thank you to all the wonderful kids who squirmmed through our freshman outing and to all the Vegan parents for supporting what we are doing!
