Community

Starting a business amidst a global pandemic is no easy process. We are so thankful to our community partners and friends who believed in our concept and really came thru in helping shape Vehicle Chocolates and deserve an extra high five. 

Carrie Solomon and Jody Ake are our friends and the wife-and-husband duo behind Greater Goods. They are not new to the alternative wellness world; in 2014 they started a medical cannabis company in Oregon to bring amazing edibles and therapeutic topicals to the state. From the very start, it was important to them to make things that taste wonderful and are also effective, aligned with the types of goods that they themselves would want to consume. 

George and the team at ranger are incredible. We source our chocolates and cacao with them to ensure the best organic and fair trade ingredients go into each bar. 

Our co-founder Matt spends a lot of time in Guatemala, sourcing our coffee and exploring cacao fields. We were lucky enough to do a workshop at the Fungi Academy on Lake Atitlan and build our knowledge of all things Fungi!

 Evolved Mushrooms
Evolved Mushrooms was founded in 2019 in Portland, Oregon in response to the growing need to enhance the health and wellbeing of our local communities.  Through cultivation and pharmacology workshops, they provide education that can help further one's understanding of how to work with mushrooms.
