Let's get started!

About Us


We are family owned and operated. We are certified, licensed, and insured. Our Vegan Plant Based Lifestyle Journey began 3 years ago after watching a Netflix documentary, "What the Health". We are an African American family who like many others in our community enjoy eating an all American and Soul Food diet, not realizing that many if not all of our health issues stemmed from what we consumed. Sure, we knew that cutting back on red meat, junk, sweets, and fried foods would help us be a bit healthier but even doing that we still were suffering and struggling to feel healthier. We knew about being vegetarian but never heard of the terms Vegan and Plant Based. We began furthering our research, watching more documentaries, visiting vegan restaurants, and having fun adventures in our kitchen with vegan recipes. It was then that I discovered that we could enjoy our favorite foods without the need of animal meat or by products. We decided to visit our doctors before beginning our journey and continued to follow back up with our doctors every 3 months to see where we stood, and the results were mind blowing! In just 3 months we were reversing many of the health diagnoses we had as a family and being taken off medications too! Weight loss was a bonus too! We could no longer hold in our excitement and had to start sharing our journey and our food with family and friends.

Sharing information with them helped spark their interest in wanting to try Vegan Soul Food, so we began inviting them over hosting brunches, dinners, and try vegan challenges. They LOVED our food, baked goodies, and when done with a challenge reported how amazing they felt! They asked for recipes, so they could begin their plant-based journey! They took containers of our food home with them and on their way out the door would tell us to start a business and create a recipe book. The passion to help our African American people among other minorities eat well to live well kept growing. We care about sharing this lifestyle with everyone; however, we are aware that statistically morbid obesity, diabetes, heart attacks, strokes, and cancers rank higher among African Americans than any other race. Why is there a lack of access to affordable and healthier food choices in urban communities? It is clear that food injustice and insecurities are as serious as any other injustice we face. These urban communities are either purposely targeted or left out in comparison to non-urban communities.  It's no secret that poor diets are claiming the lives of many African Americans among other races. Receiving a diagnosis can be hard, but there is hope in knowing that most of today's diagnoses are linked to diet and can be reversed. It was a great feeling for us when our family doctor said "Your lab work numbers are amazing and therefore, I see no reason to continue with prescribing medications. Keep doing what you all are doing! I'm proud of you guys!" and we were safely able to ditch the pharmaceutical medications! We felt empowered! We knew we had to birth our business so that we can educate, support, and empower people in our communities on how to eat to live without compromising on quality of taste and culture. So, Plant Based Planet LLC was born!


We Believe In


We believe that a clean bill of health can be achieved from the foods that we consume holistically, organically, naturally, without the use of animal meat or by products, or the need for most pharmaceutical medications if at all possible. We believe healthier foods should be made affordable for all. We believe that healthier meals should be as delicious or even tastier than the unhealthy foods helping folks stay committed to their goals. When the healthier options are bland in taste or just outright disgusting then you will give up and began the yo-yo effect. We believe in a lifestyle change not another diet fad. We want you to know that you have options besides pills, operations, and death. Lastly, we believe that we can eat the foods we love and feel good about it helping to save the lives of our animals and doing our part to preserve our planet. 

Our Mission


Our mission is to introduce the Vegan Plant-Based lifestyle to more people with a special interest in communities of minorities. Studies and statistics reveal alarming data with regards to African Americans struggling with diagnosis of obesity, cancer, strokes, heart attacks, and diabetes than any other race. We believe that if given the opportunity to be introduced to a healthier and affordable way of eating then the exposure could allow for a much healthier quality of life for everyone. All the nutrition that we need can be found in fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, legumes, whole grains, herbs, spices, and edible greens from the sea. Our passion is to educate, support, and empower our clients to take back control over their own health in an all-natural way providing all the tools they need to make their transition a successful long-term lifestyle change.

Our Client’s Stories

Jasmine

“Plant-Based Planet has not fully launched, but I was invited to try their food prep and delivery service while they are putting together their menu. They dropped off 6 freshly made meal prep packaged dinners. (“Meatloaf and Asian style “Chicken” and rice) both dishes were seasoned very well and cooked to perfection. Crystal is the truth! She has coached me in choosing vegan options and transitioning along my newly found plant-based journey. Can’t wait until they fully open up for business. I definitely will be placing more orders.”

Camile

“I’m still in awe of how someone could cook up walnuts, lay it on lettuce like a taco, and have it be tastier than a T-bone steak! Crystal’s plant based fixings were incredible! From her homemade sour cream made from cashews to topping that on no chicken fajitas in coconut wraps. Simply amazing! I thoroughly enjoyed each dish and didn’t feel bloated or guilty afterwards. Just touring Crystal’s kitchen of all her healthy plant based items, inspired me to make beneficial and easy changes. I’m looking forward to learning even more about how I can practice a healthy and enjoyable lifestyle through her coaching.”

Crystal Dickerson is an amazing woman who enjoys sharing knowledge that will permanently impact one’s well-being. I met Crystal at an Optimism Contagious meeting a couple of years ago. During our meetings, she would freely share her weight loss journey, specifically becoming a vegan. I admire how Crystal always ended sharing her experience with the importance of feeding our body with the right foods. In addition, she encouraged the group to take small steps and volunteered to answer any questions about transitioning.

Crystal Dickerson has invited me to her home to enjoy vegan meals and desserts. And to my surprise, both were DELICOUS. Not only did she serve them but also provided recipes, too.

PURPOSE

Crystal Dickerson purpose in life is for everyone she meets, to live their life to its fullest. I have experience this by her wealth of health knowledge, gifts of cleansing materials, the introduction to healthy vegan food & beverages, and endless support.

Plant Based Planet will provide all of this and more. Get excited to enjoy your transformation with Crystal Dickerson.”

“Back in August of 2018 my brother Ishmeal with diagnosed with CADASIL. This stands for Cerebral Autosomal Dominant Arteriopathy w/Sub-Cortical Infarcts and Leukoencephalopathy. This disease is often misdiagnosed as having MS. Many of my family members have had it and sadly, many are no longer with us. It is an inherited form of cerebrovascular disease that occurs when the thickening of blood vessel walls blocks the flow of blood to the brain. Some symptoms include multiple strokes, cognitive disorders, loss of balance and coordination, difficulty with reasoning, and loss of memory. He lost his ability to work and maintain an independent lifestyle as a result came to live with me and my family. Fast forward to March of 2019, my wife Crystal (Founder of PBP) and our daughter began to transition and after witnessing their health improve along with learning more myself and my brother joined the lifestyle. I must say that his conditions improved by leaps and bounds! He was taken off of medicines for dangerously high blood pressure and high cholesterol. When we took him in he was not coherent, alert, couldn’t hold a conversation, unable to bath himself, unable to feed himself, was in diapers, couldn’t write, and was super weak in need of physical therapy. The adoption of a vegan diet has resulted in such a turnaround for him especially because there currently isn’t any treatments or cures available for CADASIL. He can now walk without falling, hold a conversation, always in a good mood, can write and draw again, bathe himself, feed himself, help out with chores, does activities, exercises daily, and the lists keeps growing! I attribute all of this to Crystal’s decision to introduce the vegan diet for Ishmeal and I know in doing so, she without a doubt helped me save his life. He goes to the doctor for well visits only now! His doctors can’t believe he is the same guy that they met when his journey first began.”
