What we’re about
This Meetup is for vegans, vegetarians and the veg-curious. We come from all over the greater Portland metro area. We do not promote any one political party or religious agenda, nor do we sell anything or recruit for other Meetups. We're here for fun, socializing and making new like-minded friends.
In the past, we've posted volunteer opportunities, outdoor events, movies, concerts, plays and author readings. We've had hikes and bike rides, garden walks, played board games, etc. -- often (but not always) with a veggie meal before or after for those interested. Many of us support animal rights, environmental and human rights issues.
If you have event ideas, just ask Noah Bristol to help us plan events!
Q: What is our main purpose?
A: To join fellow vegans/vegetarians for meals, chat, fun, and anything else under the sun! Or, to be more accurate, under the rain clouds much of the year in the Pacific Northwest. We're not centered around political activism; we're more of a laid-back social group. Some events may be more activism-oriented however.
Q: How do I join?
A: In order to join, we ask that you use a profile photo of yourself that clearly shows your face. We are primarily a social group and it makes it easier to identify people when we do events. It also makes it more comfortable to invite people to your home for a potluck if you can see who is attending. However, if it's important for you not to do so, you may still be allowed to join.
