This meetup is a chance to socialize with others of all ages who share a compassionate lifestyle. We can get together at restaurants with vegan food, meet on the beach for a potluck vegan picnic, or work together on an animal rights project! I am mostly in Maine during the summers, but I would love to get to know other vegans in the area!

Monthly vegan/healthy eating cooking classes at Pines Community Center in Northfield, NH and other meetups, events at other locations. We like to educate the public about making healthier food choices using whole, plant-based foods. Everyone is welcome, regardless of your dietary choices. Just bring an open mind! A sit-down dinner of our creations follows the cooking class, and we often show educational/informational DVDs on nutrition, healthy eating and how to make healthier choices.
