For the first time ever there is going to be a week long celebration to bring awareness about vegetarianism and compassion for animals. Organized by the non profit organization Compassion Over Killing, this 7 day celebration will give exposure to the benefits of leading a vegetarian or vegan lifestyle. California legislators are pledging to go veg for this 7 day period to support the cause.
The VegWeek celebration will start off with a party with guest speakers including Chloe Coscarelli, the winner of Food Network’s Cupcake Wars. She will share her tips on dairy and egg-free baking. California Assemblymembers will also speak and explain their plans on going veg for the week.
