Planthropie closes

Birmingham’s Planthropie, a unique dessert and cheese shop famous for vegan, raw, dairy-free, gluten-free and organic creations, has closed. The shop was opened in 2020 by Rua Francis Oshana who was motivated to make vegan desserts and cheese after she learned her son was severely allergic to dairy. With appreciation to her customers, Oshana left a heartfelt note to customers noting that her time at Planthropie had been a dream. “Thank you to everyone that I met, thank you for all the love, memories, connections and friendships along the way, this journey has been a wild one. Thank you for believing in Planthropie and our mission to create food as art and medicine,” she wrote.
