Vida Vegan Conference Ticket Giveaway
As I mentioned a while ago, I’m attending the 2013 Vida Vegan Conference (VVC) in Portland this May. What is the VVC, you might be wondering? Founded by the lovely Janessa, Michele, and Jess it’s 3 days of seminars, talks, food, fun (duh), and exhibitors all with a vegan twist. And of course, we’ll be prowling the vegan-friendly streets of Portland along the way. This will be my first time visiting Portland and as you can expect I am beyond excited. I might pee my pants actually.
When is it? The VVC 2013 will be held on Friday-Sunday, May 24-26, 2013.
Where? Portland Art Museum, 1219 Southwest Park Avenue Portland, OR 97205
Is there a schedule break down for each day? Why I’m so happy you asked. For the complete VVC schedule see here.
Recently, a reader named Grace contacted me explaining that she bought a ticket to this year’s VVC, but is sadly not able to attend anymore. And because of her super generous heart she’s offering the ticket to one lucky reader! Yes, you have the chance of winning a ticket valued at $280.00 for 3 days of conference fun!

What an amazing opportunity! I’d love to have the chance to attend vida vegan con!

I have been on an elimination diet to try to determine all these reactions that have been going on. Your blog provides great inspiration to learn more about food and how it works in my body as well as recipes I can use. The more I learn the more I do think plant based diet is the way to go. I would love to experience such an inspiring place, surrounded with others who can teach us even more!
This is awesome! I’m graduating college this May and have been planning a trip out that way…it would be awesome to experience!
Awesome! I’d love to go and I’ve always wanted to visit Portland- perfect!
