Vegan Charcuterie Board

Whether for Christmas day, a private holiday party, or new years eve, the board is your bestie. The key is to let your creative juices flow…the sky’s the limit! We love incoporating fresh greens, fruit, mustards, pesto, balsamic, oil, sweet or savoury nuts, honey, jam, jelly & of course our favourite crackers or bread. And now that there are so many delicious dairy-alternative “cheeses”, it’s so simple to keep your board vegan-friendly.

Get your savoury on with pickles, kimchi, olives! Fill in the cracks for a full beautiful spread and invite your guests to explore every flavour.

And don’t forget to serve some festive drinks! We combined a can of zevia sparkling lime water with organic cranberry juice with delicious result. PC: Julia Luymes


The charcuterie board has gained popularity over the years as not just a fancy party appetizer, but as a unique and progressive way to prevent food waste, which we LOVE. Make use of all the little leftovers in your fridge and cupboard this holiday season!


Check out our selection of vegan alternatives for cheese, butter, eggs etc for the holidays this year at each of our locations! In collaboration with Jess from THE PAIR-ADIGM

We've all been there. You set a goal for yourself to work out more but you can't seem to get into the routine. The workouts might be too hard or you might not have the energy for it. The World Health Organization (WHO) states that at least 1 in 4 adults do not get enough physical activity. If you're inactive, you carry a 20% to 30% greater risk of premature death compared to more active lifestyles. If you have trouble finding the time or energy to work out, VILPA may be a solution for you.

Who run the world? Girls! March is Women's History Month, and March 8th is International Women’s Day. What better time than this to lift up the women around us! Because of the entrepreneurial courage of our founder Jo Anne & the continued efforts of our now owners & team (which is over 80% women), we have been serving Peterborough & The Kawarthas for over 45 years! We are thankful not only for the amazing women in our team, but for the meaningful connections we have made with so many inspiring women in our community. It is important to us to continue fostering an environment where women feel safe, supported & inspired. We are excited to look to the future and continue to evolve to meet the needs of our community.
