When I first went vegan in 2014, I had such a hard time finding a good vegan hot chocolate. We have come so far with vegan options in the more recent years, so perhaps there is something decent out there now. But I wouldn't know because eventually, someone showed me how to make hot cocoa with 3 simple ingredients: Cocoa Powder, Sugar, and Vegan Milk. And I've been enjoying this warm beverage every winter since. Not only have I enjoyed it, but I have mastered it over the years.

THE BEST VEGAN HOT CHOCOLATE EVER:

Ingredients
1 cup Creamy Oat Milk (this must be the creamy kind)(it must be exactly 1 cup)
1 tablespoon cocoa or cocao powder
2 tablespoons organic cane sugar
and you will need a hand held milk frother

Directions
In a cup, add the dry ingredients. Heat the milk in a separate, pourable container. Pour about 2-3 tablespoons of the heated milk into the dry mix and mix it so it is a creamy paste with no lumps. Use the frother to whip up the milk in the separate container. Once it's frothy, pour it into the cup and give it just a few soft stirs to mix the milk and powder paste. And that's it. You can add vegan whipped cream, marshmallows, or a top sprinkle of cinnamon if you'd like, but this is so good you won't even need it.
These ingredients are so easy to keep on hand, so you can enjoy this any time through the winter and even in the warmer months if you'd like!

This recipe was shared by our office & engagement manager, Sherry Maroon. An eleven year vegan and friend of the farm since 2018. If you have a vegan recipe that you love and want to share here, please email [email protected] with the recipe, a pic, and one - three lines about your vegan story. We would love to share your loved recipe with our vegan and vegan-curious friends!

FARM WIN FRIDAYS - SAVING COSTS
Each winter, straw costs rise as it is a primary way to keep all of our residents warm. The amount of straw increases during the colder months so animals can burrow into it to keep warmer. It is a continual cost as soiled areas are removed and then new straw is added. In addition to our annual appeal where your generous donations help to fund this expense, we are continuously finding ways to save costs on our end. Here, our facilities manager has added piggie cubicles which has allowed us to hold straw within the cubicle areas while no longer needing to add straw in the main area. The pigs stay warm and cozy while less straw is used.
Thank you for watching our Farm Win Friday, where we have recently been letting you in on farm improvements we continually make!
And thank you for your support through watching, sharing, following, liking, commenting and donating. We are truly happy to have you as part of our community!

‼️NEW RESCUE ALERT‼️ We just picked up our new resident from MSU yesterday! Thank you to our friends at BLOOM for making sure he wasn’t just another throwaway. Read his story from Anna below! 👇🏼 (Stay tuned for updates!!)

“We (BLOOM) received a frantic call about Elvis from a past volunteer who was alerted to a property nearby where a man was shooting his pig “today!” because he didn’t have any takers on offering him up for free. Our friend and volunteer called to ask for help saving his life despite having nowhere to put him.

We are full and had no idea where this pig could safely go, but weren’t willing to allow this boy to be killed, so he went and loaded him up to keep him safe while we worked hard to network him.

Elvis’s prior environment was unstable and it appears there are other problems going on at this residence including probable substance abuse, improper housing, and other agency involvement regarding child endangerment.

So basically not a safe or stable environment and we hope for a safe outcome for all involved. 🙏🏻

It’s amazing how sweet and resilient Elvis is, and he’s so lucky to be safe and now a member of the Sasha family.”
