LUHV FOOD

Bill Salamone is a frequent customer at our Hatboro Bistro. Carolann, our VP of Operations, finally got to sit down with Bill to hear about his journey towards vegansim. All his life, Bill has been an athlete and fitness lover. In high school, he ran cross country and before his meets, he carbo-loaded with pepperoni pizza, pasta, and burgers. Come race day, he felt achy, lethargic, and burnt out. After graduating from high school, he became a personal trainer and noticed that there’… (truncated)

Since May is all about celebrating mothers, it’s only fitting to have the founder of LUHV Food, Silvia Lucci, tell her story about being a woman entrepreneur! Since the beginning of times, women in most societies have experienced inferior status, exploitation, oppression, abuse, and lack of self-determination. I was raised in Argentina during the 1970s and it was a male chauvinistic society. Luckily, my father traveled for work and was away for months at a time, which gave my mother… (truncated)

April showers don't just bring May flowers, but also a focus on the environment. In fact, after the California oil spill and the Cuyahoga river catching fire in 1969, Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson organized the first Earth Day in 1970. Now, more than 1 billion people across 193 countries celebrate Earth Day. The Earth provides us with food to eat, water to drink, oxygen to breathe-- we should be honored to call Earth home. Some of my most favorite moments in the outdoors have bee… (truncated)

Phew-- the Holiday season has finally come to an end! January means the start of a new year. 2020 proved to be a challenging year with the global pandemic, social upheaval, and political unrest. Going into 2021, we have to reflect and set our intentions. Even though you might think you’re going into 2021 vegan just because you’ve been vegan in the prior years, you’re actually committing to and choosing veganism on a daily basis. For this LUHV Letter, we interviewed three our favorit… (truncated)

Hi, My name is Sarah-Chen O’Connell Ogorek (but my friends call me “SC” for short). I have been doing branding, marketing, and social media for the LUHV team since 2018. One of the things I immediately noticed about LUHV Food is that it’s not like the big corporations that no longer care or feel. LUHV Food is the antithesis of that; it’s a small-scale, family-run, minority-owned company run on plant power and pure love. When it came to creating the LUHV brand, I wanted to make sure… (truncated)

Facundo lucci

A Statement by Silvia Lucci Throughout my youth in Argentina from the early 1960’s -1980’s, I lived on and off under dictatorship with several years of weak democracies that would end with the military taking over, the boots coming back every time. That was the only thing I knew. You couldn’t trust the police or the soldiers. You always had to keep a low profile, because people would disappear during the night and you would rarely see them again. Somehow your neighbor would go from… (truncated)

Facundo lucci

A Statement by Silvia Lucci When I was a child, I lived in a low-income suburb of the skirts of Buenos Aires. I never knew that I was poor until much later when society told me. In those times, we knew everyone in our neighborhood, and we were definitely in each other's business. For example since there were no telephones, older neighbors would feel responsible to return you home holding your arm high to your door, which you knew would be opened by a frowny mother that will immediat… (truncated)
