Shenandoah Valley Vegetarian Society

This is an idea that has been kicking around in my head for quite some time. I live in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia and there is no type of social group for vegetarians around here. The closest ones are in DC and Charlottesville, both roughly 2 hours away. I know there have to be vegetarians in the Valley other than my family, so I figured I'd create a place for veggies to network and meet one another. I have these wonderful fantasies of starting a supper club and I figured this might be a good way to do it. It might also be a good way to gain some clout in the community and perhaps encourage local restaurants to add more vegetarian and vegan-friendly dishes to their menus. I am really hoping this gets off the ground because I think we could do a lot of really good things- volunteer work, festivals, block parties, etc. I would love to meet new people and do something to promote a healthier, happier environment at the same time. I am going to go around to some local businesses and ask if I can maybe leave little slips of paper advertising the group. I figured that might be a good way to spread the word. Wish me luck!
