YDV Joins Cleveland VegFest

Mark your calendars!  The first inaugural Cleveland VegFest presented by The Cleveland Vegan Society will be at Cleveland State University June 1, 2013!  Learn more about the incredible power our choices hold, get resources to support a healthy and compassionate vegan lifestyle, and meet local vegans who provide support and opportunities to continue learning and sharing experiences.

YDV has partnered with The Cleveland Vegan Society and is proud to announce that we are the official Media Partner for the event!  We will be featuring announcements on participants, speakers, and scheduled events before the event happens to help you plan a day full of fun, information, and tasty vegan food.  The YDV team will be attending the event, where we’ll have exclusive interviews with the speakers and demonstrators.  And of course, we’ll be taking tons of great photos!

Cleveland VegFest promises to be a fun, educational event for the whole family!

Plant-based eating and cruelty-free living has been shown to be:

• Healthy for the human body and mind
• The optimum way to ‘go green’ for the sustainability of our Earth
• Strongly connected to social justice and the alleviation of hunger worldwide
• The one truly compassionate choice for all living beings

Featuring many top national speakers and authors in their fields on issues of health, environmental sustainability, social justice, and animal rights, the Cleveland VegFest will be an opportunity to explore how choosing a whole, plant-based, vegan meal, directly impacts conditions in each of these critical areas.

Learn what veganism is, why it matters, and what makes it work.  Plus, what kind of impact a vegan lifestyle has, what is the evidence?  How do you stay healthy without meat and dairy and why haven’t you been told this by your doctor.  How much does it cost to eat vegan?  What does it taste like?  AND MORE!

Experience the flavorful, wholesome, and indulgent flavors which encompass vegan cuisine, as presented by some of the best culinary experts in our area… Cleveland’s favorite chefs, restaurants, and confectioneries will be featuring their best-selling vegan menu items.

Plus, national vendors will be showcasing a wide range of vegan products and resources.

All of that and you’ll be able to meet and socialize with other local Cleveland vegans!  So come out and enjoy all that the Cleveland VegFest has to offer and meet the YDV team!  We look forward to seeing you there!

We will continue to announce speakers, participants, and food demonstrators so stay tuned!  For more information on the Cleveland Vegan Society please visit their website.
