Happy Vegan-tine's Day! The holiday where we share our love of veganism with each other. No one should be alone on Vegan-tine's Day, and we hope you will join us for a vegan meal at St Veg. Please feel free to come and hang out, dine with us, or just come to enjoy some candy. I will bring some sweet treats to share, and people are welcome to bring Valentine's as well. If you do bring in something, please make sure it is vegan. Looking forward to celebrating this Rockville Vegans invented holiday with you all!
