Celebrate a Meatless Monday With No Impact Man & enVeg!

‘Cuz veg*ns taste better. Let us show you why…. This Thursday, come on down to the Plaza of Americas to see what enVeg has cooked up for you.

We will be giving away FREE seed packets as an alternative to the traditional store-bought flowers. We will also have some veg*n sweets so you can give a friend or loved one a tasty, sustainable treat (small donations are greatly appreciated).

We will even have some “How to have a sustainable date” guides.

Date: Thursday, February 11, 2010
Time: 11:30am - 2:30pm
Location: Plaza of Americas

***If anyone is willing to bring a vegan dessert to give out at this event, it would greatly help our cause. enVeg will be happy to compensate you!

THIS SUNDAY!!

Everyone and anyone is invited. Potlucks are a great way to enjoy delicious vegan food and meet new friends. All ya gotta do is bring a vegan dish, serving utensil, fork, plate, and your own drink. There is no theme, so bring whatever you would like. Blankets to sit on are also helpful.

Although we prefer there to be as much food as possible, we understand if you’re too busy to cook, in which case we request you make a donation of a few dollars to the enVeg cause.
