This group is an effort to get Peninsula vegans together to socialize, learn from each other, and enjoy good food.

I'm hoping to meet some folks who want to cook vegan meals together or bring dishes to potlucks/picnics/hikes and share ideas. We can go to each other's houses, organize cooking classes, meet at Good Earth to learn about ingredients (next on my list is Miso and Nutritional Yeast)... You don't have to be vegan - just interested in cooking and eating that way when you meet up with us!

You're a savvy chick that has some sort of interest in a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. You're tired of Meetup groups that don't weed out people you won't fundamentally click with because of your morals and values. You're not necessarily a hippie-dippy freak, (I'm not), but you enjoy hikes, great veg food, happy hour, festivals, movies, and other normal stuff. You want to meet other women your age who won't think you're weird when you talk about tofu. Let's meet up and be friends. To keep this g …

HumVeganity events are open to folks of all persuasions - omnivores, vegetarians and vegans. Some say HUMANity, we say VEGANity. What's the difference? Veganity is the vegan way of being human.

But for those who embrace its delicious healthful bounty – through a variety of reasons including, health, morality, spirituality, environmental impact, animal welfare and animal rights – there are limitless benefits. Join us for delicious din …

Our purpose is to share animal advocacy activities, vegan activities, advocacy issues, vegan business activity and to work together to have a greater impact on the lives of animals (nonhuman and human) in Northern California.

Variety is the spice of life, says the old adage. I think veg*ns can do a lot of different things as veg*ns, besides just eating together. I do like trying good restaurants, and I do like potlucks, but that's not all there is to life. Veg*ns need to find friends with whom they share other interests, besides a similar diet. In my life, music, dancing, movies, art, theatre, games, literature, dogs, nature, travel, museums, and animal welfare all contribute to my sense of identity, and my feeling t …
