Great American Meatout March 21, 2010

The GAM is a FREE public outreach to introduce the general population to vegetarianism, including free food sampling, free literature, plus vendors and exhibits.

Our goal is to actively bring the community together for a day of education and fun in order to raise the awareness of how important it is as to what we eat, and where we get that food from. We will be gathering together a host of organizations that include medical practitioners, healthy food producers, and informational groups, that will allow people to question and sample food and products that help make this world a safer, healthier, and more compassionate place to live.

You’ll enjoy strolling the aisles, viewing displays on food production and healthy eating, or stop and have your blood pressure or cholesterol levels checked. You’ll be able to sample food from the many vendors and manufacturers making good, delicious, and nutritious things for us to eat, or just watch videos and enjoy other interactive activities on the day.

The whole event is free to the public, and any profits made on the day will go to help the devastation to both the human and animal populations of the island of Haiti.
