Hello Friends, I hope you all have had a wonderful summer! I am writing to tell you about two Vegetarian Resource Group events you do not want to miss in Baltimore this fall! The Land of Kush Benefit Day: September 29, 2014 On September 29, 2014 you can support VRG while enjoying your favorite vegan soul food dishes from The Land of Kush! On this day, The Land of Kush will be generously donating 10% of the entire day's proceeds to VRG. So, come out between 11am and 9pm and get the famous Kush BBQ ribs or amazing baked mac & cheese, all for a good cause! The Land of Kush is located at: 840 N Eutaw St, Baltimore, MD 21201 You can check out their menu at: [ http://thelandofkush.com/home/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Menu_10.24.pdf ] Although this will not be a formal group gathering, I will be available between noon and 2pm and 6pm and 8pm to answer any questions you may have or to just chat. We will also have copies of the Vegetarian Journal and literature available for you to take home. VRG's Pre-Thanksgiving Vegan Potluck: Sunday, November 23, 2014 Please join us at our 33rd annual Pre-Thanksgiving Vegan Potluck on November 23, 2014 at 5pm at North Baltimore Mennonite Church (4615 Roland Avenue, Baltimore, MD 21210). Admission is $4 per adult; children are admitted free. Bring a vegan dish -- made without meat, fish, fowl, milk, cheese, eggs, honey, or other animal-derived ingredients -- that serves four as a contribution from each member of your party. Also, we encourage you to bring a non-perishable vegetarian canned food item to donate to the church, who will distribute it to those in need. We look forward to seeing you at these events and thank you in advance for your support! If you are interested in volunteer opportunities at these events or otherwise please contact me at ninac@vrg.com or (410) 366-8343.
