‘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

***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!
