BOSTON VEGETARIAN SOCIETY

The Boston Vegetarian Society seeks to help people, animals, and the environment by promoting a vegetarian way of life. We provide education, community, and outreach to encourage healthy plant-based eating and compassionate, earth-friendly living. We believe that choosing foods from plant sources is one of the best things we can do for ourselves, the environment, and for animals. Replacing animal foods with plant foods reduces the animal suffering and environmental destruction that result from... animal agriculture. It is a meaningful way to help make a better world and to feel good about how we live our lives. At the same time, we remove foods that have been linked with serious health problems, and replace them with beneficial plant foods that contribute to good health. BVS organizes an active schedule of educational, outreach, and community building events (read about them on our Events & Activities page). We also organize the annual Boston Veg Food Fest, one of the largest vegan events in the world. We encourage non-vegetarians and vegetarians alike to join us as we learn and share information, friendship, and community in carrying out our Mission. BVS is an all-volunteer organization.More
