There’s a little green truck tooling around the streets of Vancouver, and it’s got a name: Culver City Salads. Since early 2013, Christina Culver has been selling her delicious and colourful vegan salads from the back of her cheerful food truck, delivering healthy food to workers on the go. “You tell us your allergies and super hates, and we’ll take care of the rest for you,” says Christina with a laugh. Like many of the veggies she serves up, this is a locally grown enterprise, and one that is poised to blossom.
Sisters Christina and Sarah Culver are the fab femmes behind Vancouver’s greenest food truck. If clean, plant-based, gluten-free eating is your jam, these wholesome salads are your best bet when looking for a nutritious lunch on the go. Even devout carnivores have been known to swoon over these brightly coloured lunchboxes packed with fresh veggies, healthful grains and handcrafted dressings. Spot these salad-slinging sisters parked in their namesake truck at Hastings and Thurlow on weekdays (except Monday) from 11:15 am to 2:15 pm. You can also pick up fresh-made Culver City Salads at Krokodile Pear locations across the city.
Sisters Christina and Sarah Culver are the talented entrepreneurial team behind Vancouver’s healthiest food truck. The bright green Culver City Salads truck (nicknamed Granny Smith) has become a favourite fixture at farmer’s markets and food festivals around the city. The menu board changes with the seasons but you can be sure the nourishing vegan salads on offer are stuffed with fresh, colourful vegetables, filling proteins and tossed with gluten free, vegan hand-made dressings. Take-away dishes are served in compostable and biodegradable containers to ensure these salads are green in almost every way.
