TALKING WOMEN’S HEALTH FOR WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH
With the start of March also brings Women’s History Month! In acknowledgement of the many exceptional women who have changed the course of history for the better through their intellect, innovation, bravery, and compassion, this is a good month to discuss some information about optimizing women’s health. In this month’s article, I will discuss several of the most common conditions affecting women today, the recommended guidelines for screening for these conditions, and my own recommendations about how we can help prevent these conditions.
A VEGAN’S GUIDE TO ANN ARBOR, DEARBORN, AND DETROIT
Metro Detroit is full of an overwhelming diversity of food, especially vegan food. In metro Detroit there are three cities that really stand out for their culinary endeavors – Ann Arbor, Dearborn and Detroit. This guide will explore great vegan food in each city as well as a few things to do in between meals. The hardest part is deciding where you’re going to eat first.
VEGAN GETAWAY TO WEST MICHIGAN
The west side of the state is full of enchanting small towns lined with charming shops and fresh produce stands with a lovely feeling in the air to slow down and enjoy the views of Lake Michigan. Over the last few years, it has also become increasingly easier for vegans to not only enjoy West Michigan’s beautiful environment but also, the food.

What we do
Vegfest
The largest veg-friendly event in Michigan. Due to current gathering restrictions, VegFest will be rescheduled for April 2022 in the Grand Riverview Ballroom at the TCF Center in Detroit.
VegFest highlights include a large selection of local restaurants offering delicious plant-based foods, talks by inspiring and informative speakers, cooking demos, free samples, sustainable shopping, and more!
frEE fESTIVaL
Based on the city of Farmington’s current moratorium on large events, the recent executive orders, and the latest health and safety guidelines, we are unfortunately unable to move forward with hosting this year’s Free Festival originally planned for September 13 in downtown Farmington. Although we are disappointed we won’t be able to enjoy vegan food favorites and live music together this year, the health and safety of attendees, vendors, and volunteers is our top priority.
The Free Festival highlights include a selection of delicious plant-based foods, sustainable shopping, live music, and more!
