Sweden has over 400 hiking trails that run from the most southern coast of Skåne to the high mountains of Sarek. More and more people find their desire to get out in the wilderness thanks to more accessible trails and also thanks to the increased number of national parks around Sweden. It is also scientifically proven that spending time in nature will make you feel better, both physically and phycological.
When spending time in nature and staying outside overnight means that you must bring food. If out for plenty of days, this will be the heaviest part of your packing. You often want quick, healthy, nutritious, filling and in many cases rich in protein. These factors may collide with you being a vegan when out on a long hike. What I found when I investigated the many options of camping food in the outdoors stores both online and in store was the lack of good vegan and vegetarian camping food. By camping food, I mean food that are freezer dried and light weight and is just needed hot water to be eatable. Planning a long hike is the start of a long adventure but needing to plan every meal into detail is not the most exciting part. There is a need for camping food for anyone to make the outdoors accessible!
I want to improve anyones outdoor experience with tasty vegan and vegetarian food. This is to be done by making climate smart and accessible dried meals for the outdoors. The meals will be prepared with products and foods in season that are produced in the near region.
