Most SCVS meetings feature a potluck meal. Members should bring a vegan
dish to serve 6-8. SCVS is not a vegan organization, per se. But
all food brought to the potlucks must be vegan. That means they
cannot contain any animal products including, but not limited to, meat,
poultry, seafood, dairy, eggs, and honey. Dropping these ingredients
and preparing delicious, healthy meals is easier than you might think!
We choose to have the dishes be vegan because it is the common
denominator. Everyone can eat and enjoy vegan dishes. To help our
friends with alergies or food sensitivites, please bring an ingredient
list or recipe. |

Membership in SCVS is open to the public regardless of location or
current diet. No fee is
required to attend SCVS potlucks/events. But all participants of the
vegan potlucks are asked to bring a vegan meal. Some events do feature
a guest speaker or host organization and donations to support their
work is greatly appreciated. |

SCVS is a local, community-based organization formed with the aim of
supporting the adoption of a vegetarian diet by residents of southern
Connecticut. SCVS started in Jan. 26, 2003
(superbowl Sunday!) We had about 30 people attend that first day. And
the interest in SCVS continues to grow. |
