About Us

Plant-based Culinary Arts Institute

We are the change we wish to see in the world.

Pachavega Living Foods Education is an award-winning Plant-Based Culinary Art Institute. At Pachavega, we live a plant-based lifestyle fueled with positivity and gratitude. We aim to inspire by living life from the heart and connecting to nature through the integration of a healthy diet and lifestyle. The word Pachavega is coined by combining two very important things; “Pacha” from the native Quechua word, Pachamama, which means “Mother Earth” and “Vega” to honor a plant-based lifestyle and our love affair with the humble vegetable.

At the core of our philosophy is nutritionally dense and deliciously flavorful, whole, plant-based food that is organically grown as sustainably as possible. We dig deep into plant-based nutrition using the most up-to-date nutrition science and ancient wisdom of thriving healthy cuisines and traditional diet modalities around the world. We teach life-changing plant based nutrition, healthy vegan recipes and raw food chef certification courses.
