Our work.
Our programs.
Launched in 2024, Growing Plant-Based is a first-of-its-kind nonprofit inspiring and supporting plant-based dietary transitions within families raising children. Through advocacy and practical resources, we provide a unique platform equipping parents and caregivers from all walks of life to reap the benefits for children in their care, and proceed with confidence at every stage.
We create change through two core programs:
1. Educate and upskill.
We raise awareness on the health, environmental and animal welfare benefits of plant-based diets across the early life stages, and equip parents and caregivers with the knowledge and tools to raise happy, healthy plant-based children with ease and enjoyment.
2. Unite and uplift.
We are growing a community of support to connect plant-based and vegan families, and conducting advocacy to create a more inclusive environment within wider society, so that plant-powered living becomes increasingly accessible for all.

Our vision
A world that is healthy, sustainable and compassionate
for the children of today and tomorrow.
How we started
Our founder Sarah Warner has been committed to a plant-based lifestyle since 2015 when a short online video introduced her to some of the hidden realities behind everyday animal-based foods.
Embarking on a journey of discovery, she soon learned about the many ways that a vegan way of life aligns with values that most of us share, offering a pathway to flourishing for all.
Inspired to align her professional life with these values, Sarah brought her finance and leadership expertise to roles with Australian nonprofits dedicated to bringing about a societal shift towards a kind, healthy and sustainable world.
With the arrival of her twin boys in 2021 came two new reasons to care about creating a better world. As they grew, so did an idea for a dedicated nonprofit that champions all elements of raising happy, healthy plant-powered children.
And so, in 2024, Growing Plant Based was born: a new hub to facilitate and encourage families with children at every step of their plant-based journey.
Wherever you and your family are on this journey - and wherever you are in the world - you are welcome here!
