‘This week let’s discuss you and who you are? Why am I asking? I would love to know why you are interested in not just this newsletter, but vegfest, veganism, the planet, and more. You all know about me, so please share with me about you.

I have met some of you in person (it’s always lovely). I’ve received emails with kind words and support plus comments too. In case you don’t know, this newsletter goes out to close to 9K people on a weekly basis and around 50-55% of you at least open it. Huge thanks for that!!

We added a pop up holiday market on December 21 in Durham at Durty Bull Brewing. We are open to vendors. It’s your last chance to shop for Christmas plus eat some delicious food too. Let’s end the year together.

On February 8 we will be back at Durty Bull for a Valentine Pop Up Market. These have always been fun in the past and we look forward to it being fun again in 2026.

Something new is on the horizon and you can let us know your thoughts on that too.

We are morphing many of the festivals to health and fitness expos. We’ll have fitness and yoga classes scheduled throughout the festival. We will add cooking demos and have protein shake samples and more. It’s a new day for Vegfest Expos in 2026. Our partnership with The Vegan Squad is going to help us explore a whole new avenue and hopefully reach a new audience of people.

Here’s to my heat getting fixed tomorrow and my fingers not being so cold. 🙂 Here’s to hearing from many of you. I hope you have an incredible rest of your week and weekend. Thanks for being a part of what we do.
