Experience from first ever Bakersfield Vegan Fest

Saturday, April 20th was the first ever Bakersfield Vegan Fest. The event was held on the east side of Bakersfield and shared space with the Haggin Oaks Farmers Market.I love the fact that all the vegan vendors were local to the Bakersfield area. Unfortunately since the event was sharing space with the regular farmer's market, it wasn't a complete vegan event. Upon arriving at the event, I realized that all the vegan vendors were on one side of the farmer's market, so I decided to just focus on see what was offered and having a good time.

Below are photos of the food I ate as well as a photo of meeting two vegan friends (a mom and daughter duo) who live in Bakersfield and a tee shirt I bought to celebrate this first time event. This was a good first effort to introduce veganism and vegan food to non-vegans and I'm excited about what other types of vegan events will be done in the future.
