From the VegFest mailer:
“We’ll celebrate the enormous benefits of a vegetarian diet and lifestyle so join us once again at 12 noon and plan to spend the afternoon with friends, old and new. Invite your other friends and bring your family too! We will feature creative food preparation demos (with food sampling!), insightful speakers, tantalizing food vendors, visionary exhibitors, and fun activities. All food and items for sale will be vegan, and we’ll also be keeping ecological responsibility in mind. Many non-profit groups will have tables with information about their activities and educational materials as well as responsible commercial vendors with wonderful products and services.”
Rain date: September 12.
