On this episode, discover how Ryan opened a  vegan eatery, Botanical, amidst the challenges of the pandemic. You'll hear about the importance of community, the power of confidence, and the joy of creating a supportive environment for both staff and customers. 

Ryan Becklund is the owner of Botanical in Charlottesville and Bar Botanical in Crozet, Va.  Both restaurants are 100% vegan and serve a variety of vegan fare, pastries, craft cocktails, coffees, and uncommonly found vegan products. 

Ryan lives in Crozet with her partner, dog, and cats (and usually a foster cat or two).  She loves the challenging pace of the food service industry, becoming part of the rare community here in Cville, and spending her tiny amounts of free time with her friends and animals.
