Freegan Vegetarian Feast and Freegan Gift Exchange, Greenwhich Village

Attendees are encouraged to participate in Thursday’s trash tour to help rescue food to use for this Freegan Feast.

Special this month, we will have a no-pressure freegan gift exchange in conjunction with our feast. Bring any wrapped items (newspaper wrapping is fantastic!) that you may have and not want, and that could be of use to someone else. These items can also be found from other places as well. If you have a surplus of items, feel free to bring more than one so that those who come to the feast can participate even if they did not bring anything.

This is a FREE vegetarian, mostly vegan, community meal we make together with love, using the food the group rescued on the Trash Tour the night before. We’ll meet new people, reconnect with old friends, tell stories and jokes, and generally unplug from the current pent-up world.

Please note that while freegans encompass a diversity of diets, our feasts are vegetarian (and mostly vegan).

Arrive at 5:30 pm to begin cooking and preparation indoors. Plan on lending a hand in some way even if other commitments prevent you from arriving on time.

Media WILL be welcome by appointment only, but journalists will be required to respect the wishes of those who do not want to be photographed.

The feast will be held at a volunteer’s home in Greenwich Village accessible by NYC Transit. It is a non-smoking home with no furry pets, and is in an elevator building.

Please RSVP for yourself and any guests (at least a day ahead) to Janet at (347) 724-6954 for the location. We’ll meet at 5:30pm to begin cooking and preparation.

DEAR FRIENDS: KEEP FREEGAN.INFO ONLINE!!
If you like our group, or come to our events, consider helping keep us afloat.
We’re still trying to keep up with our basic expenses by raising a few funds here: www.gofundme.com/f/help-keep-freeganinfo-online
We operate on a nearly zero budget, we’re all volunteers, we only use spaces we can access for free, and we certainly don’t buy anything for our events – but… our web tools cost us money.
Are you able to help us stay online?
