A vegan program highlighting the contributions
and diversity of Black culture
Veguary is a FREE month-long celebration encouraging people to try vegan living during the month of February. This campaign is purposefully situated in the month of February (Black History Month in the United States) to highlight the contributions of Black trailblazers while sharing the many benefits of vegan living in our communities.

A 29-Day celebration of
all things black & vegan
Plant-based traditions have been prominent in cultures throughout the African Diaspora for centuries. In the US, civil rights leaders made some of the earliest and most concise assessments of connections between our society's systemic racial violence and the cruelty of the animal agriculture industry. Today, African Americans are the fastest growing population of new vegans. Afro-Vegan Society's Veguary program is designed to create a pathway to vegan living for people in our community who are interested in making a lifestyle change but need support from a community that understands and centers the Black experience.
