Nancy Winemiller Explains the Vegetarian Food Fair Manual Project

Vegetarian food fairs are effective outreach events that educate large audiences about the relationship between vegetarianism and human health, the environment, and the welfare of farm animals. Many organizations have organized and held successful food fairs, and many others have an interest in planning such an event in their area. To assist all organizations in planning and holding their events, VUNA is producing a vegetarian food fair manual.

The focus and content of the manual will be shaped by input from vegetarian organizations throughout North America, including those that have not yet held vegetarian food fairs. The goal is to produce a manual that will benefit all organizations who want to hold a vegetarian food fair, regardless of the size of their organization or their experience with planning similar events. The participation of many vegetarian organizations will be the key to producing an effective manual.

Additional information will be available soon, and a survey is currently being developed to gather information about the needs and expectations of potential users of the manuals. If you want further information about the project or would like to add your name or organization to the list of participants in the project, please e-mail me at nw26@cornell.edu. The scheduled month of completion for the manual is fall 1999.
