Getting started: Plant-Based BRUNCH themed potluck! Sunday January 18
3150 Lakeside Dr, Grand Junction, CO, USStart 2026 with our community potluck — a cozy, plant‑based brunch celebration!
What’s your ideal morning bite? Tempeh bacon, tofu scramble, a loaded vegan breakfast burrito, baked beans on toast… or maybe you’re all about fruit scones, muffins, or a slice of warm coffeecake. Whatever you love, bring a favorite vegan dish to share.
Join us for a festive midday gathering at the Lakeside Community Room. Everyone is welcome —no matter where you are on your vegan/plant‑based journey, or if you’re simply here for the food and the friendships. Community grows when we come together over food, curiosity, and kindness.
Why we gather:
- Eating plant‑based supports our health, our planet, and our fellow animals
- When we gather to share a vegan meal, we nourish more than just our bodies — we nourish our connections.
This is a family‑friendly event, and kids are happily included.
Come meet others in the community, enjoy a wide variety of homemade dishes, and swap recipes and ideas. We’re excited to share the table with you.
