Milky Plant is introducing a more sustainable way for people in the UK to enjoy plant milk alternatives by helping them make their own. The plant milk-making machine by the UK company is capable of making single-ingredient plant milks in a matter of minutes at home.
According to The Vegan Society, the number of vegans in Great Britain quadrupled between 2014 and 2019. And as the demand for plant-based meat and dairy alternatives in the UK continues to skyrocket, consumers are looking for simple, practical ways to experience better health, support animal welfare and a more sustainable environment.
Milky Plant is currently introducing its machine as part of a crowdfunding campaign and it has been met with an enthusiastic response—already it has raised more than £340,000 and generated a waiting list of more than 3,200 people.
