Our origins
Plants of Wonder makes and home-delivers vegan food in Mérida, Yucatán. Launched in 2018, our name is an homage to the amazement we feel towards the plant world – especially when we think about the variety, versatility, and flavors it brings to life in the kitchen.
We have always been inspired by many of the most traditional ingredients, dishes, and methods from around the world, but with each creation we wish to imprint a distinctive touch that makes them more tasty, nutritious, unique – and plant-based, of course!
We are especially passionate about championing the flavors and traditions of Mexican - and Yucatán - cuisine within the dynamic landscape of vegan gastronomy.
The idea behind Plants of Wonder
Our “artisanal vegan gastronomy” concept aims to make the adoption and enjoyment of plant-based eating simpler, tastier, healthier, and more affordable to as many people as possible. It combines our love for food and cooking with the importance of proper nutrition and the desire to live without causing animal exploitation or harm in the process.
We make all of our products in-house, using prime quality whole foods. We intentionally avoid the use of preservatives or "fillers", and we also make a point of omitting sugar or processed starches as a main ingredient. Salt and sugar are used sparingly, only as flavor-enhancers when required.
Our products are conceived to work equally well as a craving quencher, the base for testing a new recipe, or the plant-based staple for a time-honored classic dish.
Made conscientiously in Merida, Yucatan
Everything we do in our Food Lab kitchen is made from scratch, as close to delivery as possible. This allows us to ensure the quality and fresh taste of whatever you order, as well as avoiding the use of chemical preservatives and excessive plastic packaging needed for extended shipping and refrigeration processes. We strive, whenever possible, that the packaging materials we use be recyclable or, at the very least, easily degradable and environmentally friendly.
No matter what part of Mérida you may be, if you live here or are just visiting, please feel free to reach out and it will be our pleasure to deliver whatever you may choose to your doorstep.
Our working hours are Monday - Friday, from 10:00 to 15:00.
