3 ways to celebrate

AT HOME

Cook One Fully Plant-Based Meal

Pick one meal and make it completely vegan, with no meat, eggs, dairy, or honey. A hearty lentil soup, a rainbow veggie stir-fry, or overnight oats with oat milk and berries all work beautifully.

WITH FRIENDS

Host a Vegan Recipe Swap

Invite friends to a potluck where every dish is plant-based, then trade the recipes everyone loves most. You will head home with a full week of new dinner ideas.

IN THE COMMUNITY

Support a Vegan Business

Visit a vegan restaurant, bakery, or food market and let the owners know you appreciate them. New vegan restaurants often choose World Vegan Day for their grand opening.

Plan ahead
