Hello friends! Letting y'all know before I send out the press release: We're opening the 2024 veg history tour season with a special-edition tour bookended by great vegan food! Some of Philly's top chefs will supplement the city's top veg history tour! First one is on the first full day of spring, March 20. A second version on March 23 will serve as a rain date in case of bad weather on the 20th. These will almost certainly sell out, so don't wait to get in on this!

To kick off our 2024 tour season, the American Vegan Center is offering a special-edition veg history tour bookended by vegan food tastings.
