You are welcome to come and join us:)

Our Picnics are a very popular regular activity in the warmer weather that always attract a good number of people. All ages attend from babies to 80 year olds. We all bring food to share and various games like frisbee, kites and kayaks.

We also have regular walks which vary in length and intensity. Quite often we will combine this with a stop at a cafe. Sometimes there's a bike ride.

Talks on a variety of topics take place. Last year we were lucky enough to catch John Davis, the President of the Internation Vegetarian Union as he did a worldwide tour.

Canberra author and historian Edgar Crook presented a very interesting talk about Vegetarianism in Australia.

Chris Delforce, the President and founder of the Youth Vegetarian Association also gave us an introduction to the YVA.

Nutritionist Amber Hutchison gave a talk about nutrition and Pragya spoke about Vegetarian ethics at the Harvest Festival earlier this year.

Restaurant meals are also a regular occurance. We plan on doing regular restaurant reviews in future when we eat out together. Friendly pot-luck meals in people's homes are another very popular activity.

Sometimes there's a get-together at a movie.

Cooking classes have occasionally been organised. We plan on doing more of these.

Stalls are an important part of our outreach activity and we usually do a number of these each year. They are always alot of fun and very worthwhile.

And of course there are the monthly committee meetings which are the key to all our activities and to the ongoing success of the Vegan & Vegetarian Society. These are often preceeded by a shared friendly pot-luck meal. If you are an energetic person and  would like to be more actively involved on the Committee please contact us. 

If you have suggestions for events, skills you would like to share, or would like to be involved in organising or participating in an event please let us know.
