Vegetopia!
Vegetopia – promotes plant based meals through the sharing of recipes and articles and visits to restaurants and festivals. The group began as a vegetarian version of Veganuary and operated mainly in January but now we have moved to an all year round offering. We’ve had live cooking sessions on Zoom for specific meals and run a Green drinks session sharing people’s food stories.
Vegetopia is not just for vegetarians or vegans, but for anyone who is looking for inspiration to cook more plant-based meals. The group operated as a Facebook group and now as a Whatsapp group – email us at transitiontowntooting@gmail.com for a link.
