Texas Veggie Fair

Oct 22, 2016

Texas Veggie Fair, Texas’ largest celebration of all things veggie, returns to Dallas’ Reverchon Park on Saturday, Oct. 22, 11 a.m. - 6 p.m. This year’s seventh annual event, centered on plant-based cuisine, healthy green living, and animal welfare features vegan food and product vendors, chef demos, a beer garden, live music, yoga and kids’ activities, and speakers.

This year's event is expected to welcome thousands of guests and supporters, including Music Stage sponsor Blue Circle Media. Other partners and sponsors include Mercy For Animals, Breeze Energy, Best Thai Signature, Nessel Development, Reverie Bakeshop, and Trinity Hall providing the local beer garden.

New this year is the addition of chefs and speakers to present demos to Spanish-speaking attendees. Eddie Garza, food and nutrition manager with The Humane Society of the United States, will talk about his journey from an unhealthy 300 pound man to a healthy 150 pound vegetarian and will demonstrate delicious plant-based Mexican recipes from his new book, ¡Salud! Vegan Mexican Cookbook. Joining Garza is chef and restaurateur Miguel Bautista, with plant-based recipes from Vegan Planet, his critically acclaimed restaurant in Cancun, Mexico.
