Here is a message from one of this year’s platinum conference sponsors:
 

Led by epicurean activist Miyoko Schinner and founded on the principle of compassion for all living beings, Miyoko’s Creamery is on a mission to reimagine the dairy industry of tomorrow, with plant milk. Miyoko’s honors the art of the creamery, unlocking the epicurean and nutrition qualities of plant milk, to artfully evolve the animal-based dairy products we all know and love. True to our leadership role in the future of dairy, Miyoko’s worked with the Animal Legal Defense Fund to win a landmark legal decision in California, for the right to use the term butter, a decision that sets a game-changing precedent for the plant-based food industry.

With delicious products in over 15,000 stores nationwide from Whole Foods to Target, Miyoko’s Creamery goes from strength to strength, and our products are revered as the plant-based gold standard and true counterpart to traditional animal-based dairy. An animal rights advocate, Miyoko Schinner cofounded Rancho Compasión, a nonprofit animal sanctuary in California that provides home to over 70 rescued farmed animals. Our products can also be purchased from our website: Miyokos.com.
