Hundreds of vegans, vegetarians and those curious to try something new will descend on Penrith tomorrow for the annual Cumbria Vegan Fair.
The event, at Penrith Rugby Club between 10am and 4pm, will feature stalls selling vegan treats, including hot and cold food, drinks, cakes, as well as clothing, badges, magnets and other ethical products.
The event is organised by Farplace Animal Rescue to raise funds for the charity, and introduce people to a lifestyle free from animal products.
Organiser Kerri Turner said: “It’s always a great event and everyone is welcome, including people who eat meat and just fancy coming along for something different.
“It’s a great chance for vegans to try new products, stock up on goodies, and meet other like-minded people, but equally it’s a great chance for non-vegans to get a taste of a plant-based lifestyle, whether they are considering going vegan or not.
“As usual, we’ve got a great range of stalls selling some amazing food and merchandise, so please come along, have a great time, and help Farplace continue its animal rescue work.”
