Upcoming Outreach at Community Events

Posted on May 17, 2012 by The VRG Blog Editor

CARE Community Health & Wellness Fair
Hosted by Living Classrooms Foundation
Saturday June 9th 10:00am-3:00pm
Carmelo Anthony Youth Development Center 1100 E Fayette Street

Living Classrooms Foundation (LCF) is a non-profit educational organization based in Baltimore-Washington that drives out its mission through hands-on education and job training. Braiding three integral resources: urban, natural, and maritime, the organization creates a “living classroom” experience for students. The results of the programs strengthen the community with employable stewards with increased environmental awareness.

The VRG was invited to participate in a Health & Wellness fair hosted by LCF at their office in downtown Baltimore, near Fells Point. The event is open to LCF’s students, their families, and the community. Over 15 vendors will also be present, including our friends from Land of Kush, who will be serving up fresh vegan soul food. Stop by our booth to learn about vegetarianism and its positive affect on the environment and establishing healthy eating habits at any age!

Boulder Green Streets
Sunday September 16th 10:00am-4:00pm
East Pearl Street, between the Pearl Street Mall and 20th Street

Closed to cars and open to people, this unique street festival is dedicated to natural, organic, and eco-friendly products, activities, and happenings. Boulder Green Streets is a day-long block party celebrating community. Featuring music and dance, a parade, outdoor climbing wall and mobile skate park, kid’s activities, art and cultural presentations, talks, displays and more!

Excited to have an opportunity to reach out to the Colorado community, VRG will host a table at this Boulder Green Streets with brochures, handouts, and sample issues of Vegetarian Journal. We will also have a special offer on Vegetarian Journal subscriptions! If you are in the area you will not want to miss this green-minded block party!
