HOW I ATE VEGAN ON TRAIL | PCT Vegan Resupply
HOW I ATE VEGAN ON TRAIL | PCT Vegan Resupply
Hello everyone!
I just wanted to point out that while this was my typical vegan food set-up for MOST of the trail (especially the end, OR/WA) it does not represent exactly what I ate on trail such as town grocery store add-ons, town restaurant food, trail angel meals, etc. This set-up was, however, my ideal/fave resupply foods to eat while on trail. They’re all vegan, mostly organic, and actually mostly gluten-free (I’m not gluten-free, but it’s a bonus).
Below is a list of all the foods mentioned in the video along with their Amazon links. All are vegan and most are organic. NOTE: If you purchase any of the products by clicking on the specific links I’ve provided I get a little bit of money to help grow my channel, so MUCHAS GRACIAS advance! 🙂

Thanks for sharing your experience! I appreciate it as I learn and get ideas about how to do it myself. (I did find the background music to be more than a bit repetitive and it also distracted from what you were saying.)
Excellent food choices! I would add Larabars and tea bags. Will be watching all your videos. Hare Krishna 🙏
I think you would enjoy this repost! http://jonathanburrier.blogspot.com/2018/12/should-animals-have-rights-open-letter.html
For bulk vegan choices I purchase from znaturals.com Really fast with shipping. High quality items and bulk brings the cost down. Just need to repackage into smaller packages. Especially in areas where water is readily available I would offset that weight by carrying fresh food and veggies good for a few days. Appreciate the thought here put into nutrient dense foods and not just junk food (candy and mainstream chips and cookies) that I’ve seen with other vegan suggestions. It is a challenge on the trail as the best vegan choices are fresh foods but this is well thought out vegan trail food. I do like to support organic companies. Thank you! On the TA there were few vegan choices and very little organics especially in the little towns and pit stops. There’s always something though and its nice to have the variety with town food. It also could have changed since then.
Thank you for this video, I have learned some things. However, eating mostly processed foods packaged in plastic beats the purpose of being vegan for me. I guess I’ll just subsist on rice and lentils with a mix of ground coriander, cumin and fennel seeds with added turmeric powder which I’ll make myself, with oatmeal and dried fruits.
Have you tried any of the Outdoor Herbivore meals?
How do you bounce a box?
You cringed when you said You wouldn’t bring leafy green vegetables lol that something i think would be great

Dirty avocado?…..Im not even gonna ask.
Great information! This is really similar to what I eat on the trails and backpacking trips as a vegan as well.
Very good video. I admire you. I just subscribed to your channel. How much did your backpack waited including food? Thank you so much for sharing your video. God bless you.
Hey Cotezi. Btw, that link for the vegan spreadsheet has changed: https://www.nourishingjourneywellness.com/blog/pacific-crest-trail-resupply-info-vegan-style
I don’t know if you still read this, but is it possible to find out where you sent your resupply boxes? Thank you. This video gave me a lot of good ideas 😀
I had to switch over to my trail channel account just so I could like this again. I”ve watched this 3 times already. Also a huge fan of Mary Jane’s meals.
Terrific! Best food video I’ve seen so far. Cute and funny! Great advice!
what was your resupply strategy ? did you send all your boxes before the trail or along it ? how did you know where to send them ? I am in France and I got very few datas about that. thanks for all you share.
Awesome, cheers
I got totaly hooked on this devine peanut butter that had chia seeds through it. We dont have it in Australia, and even though im not on the trail at the minute, I soooo crave it!!!!
I am so happy to see this! I’ve only recently gotten into the idea of hiking the PCT (or AT), and was wondering how difficult it would be to do as a vegan. Glad to see you’ve done it and it wasn’t a huge deal. Thanks!
Don’t the Kind Bars have honey in them? 🙁
can It be possible doing online resupply all along the trail?
You remind me of paulina from off grid hi
Amazing!! Vegetarian!! That too in USA!! Nice to hear this. I too became vegan once I came in contact with ISKON. Now I know what I was missing. Hope you inspire many to turn to vegan.
It all sounds so gooood but like..80$ a day, and a lot of space and weight? For like 6 days of food, how did that work?? Thanks for sharing !! Great ideas
Thank you for your video! I am a vegan and am getting into hiking. Your ramen 💣 is a great tip. Also the green drinks you did I want to do. Love Dave’s 🥯 ‘s, love 🥑, and appreciate knowing REI has some vegan dinner options. Very helpful video!!
What was the budget for your food/trail living??
I now feel more confident about being vegan on a trail! It honestly surprises me how bad people eat on a long distance hiking trail! In every hiking video you see burgers and those instant beef meals. Which always made me wondering if getting vegetables or fruits would even be possible. No hiking I’ve found so far have explained resupplying like you do. So thank you! On my first long distance hike I took al those raw crackers (made from vegetables and flax seeds) with me to have enough nutrients, but the weight of the pack (combined with bad shoes) just did too bad for my body and after about 100 miles I already had to let go of most of the food I had with me. I think that when you are doing your first long distance hike you have to invent the wheel yourself ;p which means that it will be inevitable to make mistakes. No matter how informed you are 🙂 Which is also beautiful because it’s part of the process:)
Thanks for this video! I’m wondering what was your total budget for food (resupply + town)?
Great healthy and tasty suggestions! Most selections look much more costly than my typical trail food (double to triple the cost)
I am glad I found you I need a vegan ultralight sleeping bag.
Hello 🐇💞🌱
I’m vegan too! I love your videos! Sending you Happiness and good vibes!
Thank you for being vegan and for spreading the message. I appreciate you making this video so other vegans can learn from it. How many miles did you average a day?
I have taken your advice on a few good tips already…and now this. Thank you! I’m hiking vegan 2019…
I figure that the only real advantage here is that if a bear sees you, it’s going to take one look at you and move on to a squirrel, or a grub, or something with a bit more sustenance. (See ‘Into The Wild’)
Those Kind bars contain honey. Almost vegan. Happy to learn they do have a few purely vegan options. Thanks for video
Thank you for sharing your PCT nutrition hacks! 🙂 Extremely helpful! I’m vegetarian, and am looking for something other than your typical processed sugar bomb hiking diet. My only concern is the high price on some of these items. What did you typically spend per month on your thru hike?
Not to come off rude or anything but you chose a lot of junk food and processed foods you should definitely start pack more fresh fruits and vegetables, ik you want the conveniency but for over all aspect of a healthy meal or snack, also just cause something is grown organic don’t necessarily mean it’s more nutritional but that’s something else, but eating more of the raw foods will give you energy just because those food still contain there natural enzymes that actually help your body absorb the nutritious you want to cut down more on the processed food…. but that was my personal preference
So. Much. Packaging.
This is awesome! I just commented on your gear review vid and didn’t see this yet. Thanks so much for the info!
If ya ain’t eatin Marmot. Snake and Fish on trail ya ain’t hikin 😀 LOL
Im sure you get this alot, but I enjoy your style, all of it. Thanks for sharin
Loved this. Being Vegan it gets hard choosing things to eat on the go so this video was immensely helpful.
Hey thank you for this video ! just a question I was wondering, with the avocado and the principle of carrying our rubbish out, do you know if it is tolerated to leave avocado skin and stone ?
Loved this, thank you!
Great video, I have gone WFPB, and due to food addiction issues as soon as I eat foods I should not eat, I have a difficult time going back to healthy. So, I will be doing mail in resupplies. That restaurant in Idylwild sounds fantastic. If you ran into other restaurants that were vegan friendly, and what town you found them in, would be great to know. Thanks, really enjoyed watching your PCT videos.

Are the gummies vegan? I thought gummies usually have gelatin in them.
Cool face.
