VEGAN/PLANT BASED NUTRITION / ANIMAL CARE

Jenna was born and raised in Madison.  She started volunteering at Sol in July of 2021, and says “it is my second home, my heaven, and fills my heart up every time I’m there”. She is absolutely ecstatic to be part of this team! Jenna has been working at a company called Marc inc for almost ten years, supporting adults with disabilities and also works part-time for The Vibrant Veg in Madison, which is a vegan catering company and includes catering, a weekly meal program, nutrition counseling, and private events. Jenna says “when I went vegan everything started to align, I was feeling more energized, vibrant, and full of compassion, and wanted to incorporate that in my work”. Throughout the years she became a sober person which then lead her to her healing path. She is now a yoga teacher, is certified in yoga trance dance, and has taken a course in plant based nutrition. Her passion is to bring together food and healing to help guide people into a more compassionate life and show them how food and energy are so connected. Always a huge animal lover, Jenna went vegetarian in her early twenties and then went vegan overnight almost 8 years ago. “I realized I couldn’t say I love animals if I’m paying the system to treat them the way they do. I had to make a change and I’m so glad I did!! I’m so happy and honored that I get so spend my time caring for the animals at Sol.”
