Meat and Dairy Free – All You Need to Know At the Worlds Biggest Event in Bristol – and Enjoy a Party Atmosphere at the Same Time.

When Tim Barford turned vegan in 1984 at the age of 21 he had no idea that the decision would impact the lives of thousands, create a leading Hemp brand, Yaoh, – and see the launch of the worlds biggest Vegan Farye attracting people from America and Europe as well as from all over the UK – The Bristol Vegan Farye.

Tim, a former rave organiser has 5 Vegan Farye’s under his belt – and the 6th in May this year is set to be the biggest yet with over 160 stalls, 60 talks and demonstrations, a host of live bands and entertainment lined up over the 2 day event.

This is the place to be for fantastic food, exciting new health products as well as great music.

It is also home to the coveted Vegan Environmental Awards 008 which are sponsored by www.VeggieVision.com – the UK’s first and only internet TV station for vegetarian living.

So why a Vegan Farye that is suitable for everyone – vegetarian, vegan or not. Organiser Timbo says;

“The Stonehenge Free Festivals of the late 70’s and early 80’s drew me to a life of several decades of 24 -7 non stop partying from which I’ve never quite recovered and then we had the heady days of the Rave scene too, organising the biggest ever vegan Farye seemed the next logical step.”

“Back in the day, it was all about the vibe, that magical mystical untouchable unquantifiable unreachable unbottleableandsellable factor. And you know what? We’ve got it now!”

The days of veganism being boring and an unusual lifestyle choice are gone thanks to more awareness from recent TV programmes that highlight the cruelty and unhealthiness of meat and dairy products as well as the Farye. More and more people want to know where their food comes from and how their food ended up on their plate. Many are not happy with the answers they get.

There are numerous opportunities at The Bristol Vegan Farye to show people how easy it is to adapt a diet to a better kinder one.

Concerns over carbon footprints also plays a huge part of a meat and dairy free way of eating as livestock rearing for meat and dairy produce is a major source of emissions, including methane from enteric fermentation and carbon dioxide as a result of land clearance for cattle farming.

The Bristol Vegan Farye is packed with knowledgeable people who will be giving visitors much more information about the benefits of a vegan lifestyle. Maybe now is the right time to change?
