Plantible

Last week, we hosted our first ever 𝐑𝐮𝐛𝐢𝐂𝐨𝐧, our annual retreat that brings together our two teams in California and Texas. Over three days, we fostered new connections and an increased appreciation for how we all contribute to our shared mission. This retreat was a celebration of our collective strength, embodying the principle that "We are One" in everything we do. 🤝 🌎 We are immensely proud of everything that we have achieved together, but we also recognize that our greatest milestones are still ahead of us. That’s why we are working harder than ever to expand production of Lemna and Rubi Protein to fulfill the growing demands for clean, sustainable ingredients – for the health of people and the planet. Thank you to everyone on our team for making this goal a reality, and we’ll see you at the next RubiCon (and Rubisco Disco!🕺🪩 ).

Excited for this next chapter in our journey with Cultivate Next / Chipotle! Now more than ever, we need to act fast in revolutionizing our food system to become climate-positive. Here at Plantible, we understand this to our core. This year is about relentlessly driving towards our goal — to create better, scalable solutions for the food industry without compromising on taste, nutrition, functionality, or sustainability. 🌎 💡 Read the Full Report: https://lnkd.in/gTw2Pa7X
