We’re a small business with a big heart! You may not realize this, but NoBull Burger is a tiny, family- and woman-owned business that is working hard to bring better-for-you veggie burgers forward without compromising on quality ingredients or flavor.
Made entirely from whole food ingredients to encourage a plant-based diet and happier, healthier lifestyle, we are extremely proud of all the work we’ve put into this brand to bring you the best-tasting and most notorious veggie burgers right to your freezer.
We also acknowledge that we wouldn’t have made it as far as we have without the support and encouragement from other small businesses and passionate individuals who help drive us every day. That’s why, we want to take a moment to shout out and elevate just a few of our partners, friends, and favorite businesses that we hope you’ll shop with this Small Business Saturday.
Small Business Saturday is on November 27th this year, and we want to encourage you to take the opportunity to do your holiday shopping with a small business instead of going big on Black Friday or Cyber Monday. Supporting a small business can mean big things for artists, owners, and creators who are making big, local impacts in their field.

To date, Glen’s has launched 90 sustainability focused food businesses, of which over 55 are woman-owned and nearly 20 were founded by people of color.
The store generates no food waste and nearly everything on the shelves is sourced locally. By growing relationships with producers, who treat their land, their animals and their ingredients with respect, Glen’s Garden Market is a truly active community center that we’re proud to support!

Bodo’s Bagels has served sandwiches, salads, and fresh baked NY Bagels since 1988. Locally owned and operated, they have three locations open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Their bagels are made from scratch “in-house” every day at each location, and every step, from the mixing of dough to the baking, is done on-premises.
They follow a traditional all-natural recipe, with NO fats, preservatives, dairy or soy, and only use unbleached, unbromated flours. They boil their bagels just before baking because if they’re not boiled first, they’re not authentic “NY style.” Bodo’s bagels offers a variety of smear flavors and every bagel is whole wheat and affordable, starting at 90 cents for one or 80 cents each when you purchase a dozen or more.
Get a hot bagel from Bodo’s, buy a gift card, or recommend them to a friend this Small Business Saturday!
