Grape Cat

Grape Cat is operated by James and Christine Lucas of Pipersville, Pennsylvania. Our customers are individuals who understand that the current mass-market production of clothing is not sustainable, and for those people who want to make sure they're not buying into companies that exploit animals for profit," James Lucas says. Grape Cat plans to dona... te 1% of their sales to animal charities including Our Hen House, Farm Sanctuary, Woodstock Farm Sanctuary, and others. The Lucas' vegan journey began when Christine Lucas started looking for alternative ways to ease her allergic symptoms when her asthma flared up several years ago. A family trip to Farm Sanctuary (an animal rescue organization) in 2008 helped her change her perspective on animals and food, opening her and her family up to a vegan lifestyle. After that life-changing trip, James and Christine founded the Bucks County Vegan Supper Club and later, they helped co-found the web site fromatovegan.com as a way to help inspire and motivate other people interested in adopting a plant-based lifestyle. Their new venture, Grape Cat, was started "to create a new kind of company that is good for customers, employees, the environment, and animals," says James Lucas. "We want to have a central place to find high quality, animal-free products that have been vetted by us." James, a graphic designer by trade, also started Doylestown Movie Fans, who meet once a month to see movies at the County Theater in Doylestown, PA. James is proud to support several nonprofits that support animals and the environment. Christine has been in the bookselling and publishing industries for nearly 20 years. She has been interested in decreasing her ecological footprint on the planet for years and believes Grape Cat helps to spread that message. Connect with Grape Cat on social media:Read More
