‘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.

***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.

Check out this video on the link between meat and environmental degradation. Why is meat not “green”?

Join enVeg during Meatless Mondays on the Plaza of the Americas and pledge to give up meat at least once a week in order to help curb climate change. We’ll be sharing vegan treats and talking with students who’ve joined us in the commitment.

Why Meatless Mondays?

In September Rajendra Pachauri, chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), said we could reduce greenhouse gases significantly just by going meatless one day per week. So enVeg has decided to get the word out and encourage others to make this small but important change.
