Guest Speaker and Chef Schedule

You can plan on there always being a great chef and a doctor presenting, throughout the event. They each present for around 40 mins, so you’ll have the opportunity to see several while you’re at Vegfest! On Saturday, we also have children’s book readings by two different authors throughout the day.

Here’s the schedule of events for 2023:
