The next Veg/Vegan Meetup will be at Blue Nile on 12/11/22 at 6pm. The food is going to be great, but comes with a request from the owner: we have to give them the order ahead of time. Please order from the menu below and reply in the comments with what you want by December 5th. You can pay at the restaurant.

If you are not sure you can make it, then they can wait and order separately. If you order and can not make it, then delete your post before 12/5 or message myself or Iris to cancel your order.

Iris had a great idea: we would like to collect money to cover the cost of a meal for 1-2 people who can't afford it. This is completely voluntary. If you would like us to sponsor your meal please message me separately.

We are planning on having a meetup in August. Leave a comment below if you know of any local places with good veg/vegan food.

In the mean time enjoy: "12 VEGAN FROZEN DESSERTS TO GET YOU THROUGH SUMMER"

Cool down and chill out this summer with these vegan frozen desserts, from classic fruit popsicles to ice cream-stuffed mochi.

In a few months we should be able to meet again. Until then, enjoy some rainbow cookies!

These classic Italian cookies, resembling the country’s flag, are a staple dessert delicately blending the flavors of almond, fruit, and chocolate.

Vegan Potluck on Saturday 11/14 at 6pm!

After a break, we are slowly resuming this meetup. Bring your passion for plants and your favorite vegan dish. Everyone will have to wear face masks, except when you eat with your group. Space will be limited, so if you intend to come message me your name, number of guests and what you are bringing.

Let's build a strong vegan community!

Looking for vegan restaurants in Lafayette or when you travel away? These two sites are at the top of my list.

Always call ahead to find out what vegan options they have. This does two things. It makes sure you have a meal to enjoy when you get there. It sends a signal to the potential restaurant that there is a vegan demand.
