Thrive Market Highlight - Virtual Vegan Shopping Haul
Thrive Market is a member-based, online market place. I joined last summer and feel so grateful now to have groceries delivered during this crazy quarantine time. In talking with family and friends about getting groceries these days, I realized that many aren’t familiar with Thrive Market. So, I put this post together so that you can learn about them and see what I purchase on the regular.
And while this post is not sponsored, they do offer a referral program. If you join through my link, you’ll get 25% your first order and I get a $25 Thrive Market cash kickback. That’s not what this post is about, but who doesn’t love an offer + kick back?
Also, you guys, they have boxed cold brew. It’s a blessing. <3
In my opinion, Thrive Market is good for…
Anyone in self quarantine who cannot or do not want to go to a grocery store
Busy parents
People who do not enjoy shopping in person
People who live in remote areas, where grocery stores like Whole Foods or Trader Joe’s are not easy to get to
People on specific diets - i.e. plant based, vegan, gluten free, etc. (They have plenty of non vegan, non gf, etc. as well.)
The types of products I buy most are…
Pantry staples - seeds, nuts, dried and canned beans, shelf stable plant based milks, etc.
Snacks and school lunch type items
Spices - I love that they offer these little 2 oz spice pouches so you can try new spices without committing to a huge container. They’re super inexpensive, too.
Thrive Market branded products because they’re a great deal and great quality
An annual membership is $59. For every membership purchased, one is donated to someone in need. How amazing is that?
Without further ado, here is my Thrive Market virtual vegan shopping haul. You can click any of the products below to go to the purchase page on Thrive.

Products I want to try
Are you a Thrive Market member? What are your favorite buys? Do you love it? Not use it? Have you tried any of the products on my want to try list above? I’d love to know your thoughts! Leave a note in the comments below or join the conversation on Instagram.
A note on referrals: This post is not sponsored and the product links are not affiliate links. I just really like this company. Maybe they’ll sponsor me one day in the future! But, they do offer the refer a friend promotion I mentioned above, so if you join through my link, you’ll get 25% your first order and I get a $25 Thrive Market cash kickback.
A note on shipping delays due to Corona: Due to the current demand, Thrive has noted on their website that orders are shipping out 8-9 days delayed. This is not typical but I do recommend shopping this market for things you need in the future rather than something you’re planning on cooking right away. In general, I feel we’ve become so used to the Amazon next day delivery that a 4-5 day shipment feels like a long time. To me, 4-5 days to get all of these amazing products at my doorstep is actually a miracle. And two weeks in a pandemic, I’ll take it! I have so much gratitude for this company and all of it’s employees. Thank you all.
Also, they have a note up many days in the afternoon that says they are not accepting new orders. I believe that this is only for the rest of that day. The next day at noon EST, in my experience, they have opened back up to more orders. It reads almost as though they are closing and they are not. I have gotten orders in recently.
