In the festival, vegan products will be exhibited, local flavors will be shared, and there will be concerts and workshops for both children and adults.
In addition to trekking, workshops of such as raw food, vegan food, local plants and brines are organized. Furthermore, alongside the workshops of drawing, yoga and fairy tale for children, the workshop of “communication of children and animals” in which there are no chains or leashes is among the festival activities.
In the festival, the “best of”s will be voted as well. By joining the voting on Internet, the participants will be able to convey their appreciation for the most successful vegan deserts, products, firms and venues.
