Get Ready for Meatout this March!

In less than a week, event registration will open for FARM’s Meatout campaign, the world’s largest annual grassroots diet education campaign.

An ideal way to join is to demonstrate the great taste and convenience of vegan food by offering free samples to your community, friends, or family. You can also host a festival, info table, video screening, or simply pass out leaflets to teachers, restaurants, or the general public!

Visit our Action Center, then register your plans on January 9th.

FARM Celebrates 35th Anniversary

Last month FARM celebrated our 35th Anniversary with more than a hundred local supporters and special guests Elizabeth and Dennis Kucinich! The night was filled with compassionate people sharing inspirational stories, encouraging us to keep going strong in 2012. FARM also filled everyone in on our exciting upcoming outreach plans.

Special thanks to Elizabeth and Dennis Kucinich for spending the evening with us and to all the wonderful restaurants (Great Sage, The Vegetable Garden, Pete’s Apizza, Lotus Foods) for donating delicious vegan food, along with the cruelty-free companies (VegNews, Pangea Vegan Products, Sound Earth) for generously providing gifts for attendees.

Check out the pictures of the celebration on our Facebook page.
