Veggie Fest Chicago 2009

The Chicago Tribune called Veggie Fest Chicago 2008 the "best bet for the weekend." Healthy Dining wrote "I can't say enough good things about it. . . If you missed it, mark your calendars for this year's event." Or how about: "10,000 people and it never felt crowded."

This year it's going to be even better! Veggie Fest Chicago 2009 is happening on Saturday, August 8, 11 am - 8 pm and Sunday, August 9, 11 am - 7 pm on the grounds of the Science of Spirituality Meditation Center, 4S 175 Naperville-Wheaton Road, Naperville, IL 60563.

Check it out. Cooking demos with free samples; 40 food vendors, restaurants, and exhibitors; health talks by medical professionals; even an "Ask the doctor" booth; children's programs with crafts, games and activities; plus live music. WOW! All of this with no admission charge.

Connect with thousands of like-minded people and learn about compassionate and healthy lifestyle choices.

Hi, TinaT--I'll be in NYC that weekend (another appointment at the MSKCC day spa...), but a report from Chicago would certainly be great.
It would be interesting to see if there are low carbing vegetarians represented there, or what vendors are targeting products specifically for a low-carb market.

Welcome in.
