I want to thank Wegmans again for the $200 gift card they donated.  We used it for food for volunteers.  Thank you to Mary for picking it up and making vegan cheese spread and grilled peppers and onions (in her spare time!), which my daughter and I made into wraps and delivered to hungry volunteers at their posts.  I hope I found everyone!

Thank you to Sarah at Kitchen Verde for bringing food for volunteers to VegFest.  There was rice and black beans, tofu, and a wonderful corn salad that was so welcome on a hot day.  We scraped those pans clean.  Kitchen Verde was scheduled to be a vendor, but unfortunately had to cancel, so we’re sorry attendees didn’t get to have any.

I want to thank Balsam Bagels for giving us vegan cream cheese and dozens of bagels the morning of VegFest.  They were most welcome to the many volunteers who came very early to help set up.  Thanks to Mike Q for picking them up!  The gift certificate they also donated was a big hit in the raffle.  I hope everyone has seen their new vegan menu.  Thanks to Mary for encouraging them to do that; they told her it had really increased their business.
