Wait, let me make this announcement with something closer to the correct amount of excitement:
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WE ARE HAVING A VEGFEST IN BETHLEHEM THIS SUMMER!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lehigh Valley, how do I love thee, let me count the ways.
We are going to host the first ever Lehigh Valley VegFest – a vegetarian and vegan STREET FESTIVAL on September 17th!
*The date on the poster above is incorrect – new date is SEPT. 17th. This poster is a mock-up and we will soon get our own fancy schmancy posters by an amazingly talented local graphic designer!
We’re going big (as we should). You’ll see everything from health networks toting the benefits of plant-based diets and eating, lots of cute adoptable pets from local shelters, cooking demos, interactive stations, green and eco-friendly businesses and crafters, live music, nutrition information, animal welfare/rights street teams, and FOOD!
This is a JUST ANNOUNCED event! There are so many ways for YOU to be involved. If you have a veg-group, contact me so we can see how to get you there. If you are crafter, musician, or someone with amazing ideas that you’d love to share, let’s do this.
We are taking over the Southside and celebrating it’s new GreenWay – a public green space currently being constructed for community enjoyment and awesome events like THIS!
*This will also be pet friendly event! Bring your best four-legged bud and make a day of it!
PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO HELP IN ANY WAY: savethekales@gmail.com
I’m so excited about this and I don’t even like vegetables!
Part of me wants to take that on as a personal challenge to see to victory.
So excited!! I may spruce up some eco-friendly art. 🙂
YES! Do it!
The date on the poster is different from the date that you posted. Which is it?
OH Woops, thank you, I only had a digital copy of the draft poster and missed that (thank you!) – it will be the 17th!
Excellent idea! I definitely plan on attending, possibly with dog in tow.
Bring your dog and everyones dogs. I want to pet them all and they will feel like superstars and get a billion treats!
HOOLY SHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIITTTTTTTTT.
I LOVE YOU.
Okay, now I have to actually read the post.
okay… I WANT TO BE A PART OF THIS SO HARD.
PLEASE BE A PART OF IT. This isn’t like “Ohhh I have to have a business/do this professionally/etc etc…” this is like: You want to help and you are full of passion and good ideas so POOF! help.
If you and/or folks from your KU group want to have a table with info and fun stuff, you are totally welcome to! We can talk more about some ideas for you that are more interactive than just handing out info (though that is welcomed, too, of course). It’s going to be ENGAGING and totally positive and silly and fun and informative and AHHHH I am freaking out, too.
Yeahhh. The Lehigh Valley Food Co-op would like to help. Send us some info.
EXCELLENT, I will be in touch with you. Perfect match!
I’m in!
EXCELLENT
YAY!!!!!!! I was planning on getting in touch with you! You are amazing. Oh my gosh. This will be most excellent, indeed.
Excellent!!! Count me in.
YAY! You’re in 🙂
Very exciting…want to hear all about it.
