Soul Vegan is leading the effort to promote healthy lifestyle choices at the 2nd annual, Taste of Vegan: Health and Wellness Festival. Many communities continue to disproportionately lead in the high rate of illnesses such as heart disease, diabetes, cancer, obesity, and hypertension. The time has come for us take responsibility for the impact our diet and lifestyle has on our communities’ mental and physical well-being. The Taste of Vegan, Health and Wellness Festival presents the opportunity for us to do just that! This collective celebration will empower our friends, neighbors and children with the information necessary to take control of their health, mental and physical wellness, our environment and our communities’ overall well-being. This FREE festival features food by Soul Vegan, chef demo by Chicago’s own Ale’jandro Flenorl, a special Peace Diet presentation by Zarakyah Ahmadiel and entertainment by Papa George and Kwest-on.
