VegFest is a celebration of raw, vegan, and vegetarian cuisines featuring vendors, demonstrations, handouts, recipes, health & nutrition information, and (of course) fun! It was born from an idea about how to incorporate more fruits and vegetables in our meals in simple, easy and everyday ideas. Come down, bring the family, and take home knowledge to enhance your summertime cuisine.

This is the second VegFest for Sacramento. January's event was a huge success with 24 vendors and over 1100 attendees. Now with the bountiful summertime fruits and vegetables, it is the perfect time for VegFest 2.0.

      I went to the first "Vegfest" put on at the Artisan in January which featured Your Produce Man, Michael Marks. So many people came that all the good food ran out fast, including raw and living vegan foods put up by "Cultured Kitchen" such as kombucha, as well as muffins and cookies on sale from Sugar Plum Vegan. The only mediocre food was fried rolls and noodles from "Loving Hut", which one couldn't really complain about because they gave it away for free anyway. If you arrived promptly at noon for lunch as I did you were still in good luck, but apparently shortly afterward there wasn't much pickings. I hope this time they learn to handle the crowding situation better than leave people standing in long lines just to get to all the booths just to try samples of foods. Collapse
