Sobre nosotros
We're building a supportive community for vegan, vegetarian, and veg-curious folks in the Alamo City. If you're moving toward a more healthful, sustainable, and compassionate way of eating -- or if you simply wonder why kale has been getting such good press lately -- you're welcome to join us.
This group is designed to be active and inclusive, offering events to suit a wide range of schedules and interests. We hatched our plans for vegan world domination over plates of local, organic food at Vegeria, and we'll continue to meet there for brunch on the 1st Saturday of each month. With San Antonio's own chapter of Vegan Drinks, we'll imbibe and converse at a different location each month, always on the 3rd Tuesday. If you can't wait to share your latest culinary concoction (or try someone else's), you can join us for our monthly vegan potluck.
Other items on our bucket list: movie nights, book discussions, opportunities for volunteer work and activism, field trips to veg-friendly restaurants and events outside the city, and anything else our wonderful members suggest.
We're a new group, and although both of your co-organizers hold strong opinions on any and every subject, you can trust that we'll respond to your concerns and make use of your suggestions.
We think that what we were told as children is still true: People who eat their veggies grow up strong and smart. We're excited to meet all of San Antonio's awesome vegetable eaters!

Join us to hear the review and jump in on the discussion!
