Thanksliving Celebration: Embrace A New Tradition



WFAS LOGO

It’s that time of year. The leaves are changing, there’s a crispness to the evening air, and the folks at Woodstock Farm Animal Sanctuary are going crazy getting ready for their biggest, event of the year: THANKSLIVING. Their fifth annual banquet is set to land on Sunday, October 10th, 2010 — 10/10/10, cool huh? At 1pm, of course!

This always sold-out celebration features 250 people enjoying an elegant meal in a heated tent in their goat pasture. It’s held more than a month before the actual holiday to take full advantage of the gorgeous leaves and warmer weather. And to give you ideas to take back to family and friends for your own meatless celebration. For the car-challenged NYC-types they’re timing it so you can take a bus!

Bruce Friedrich

You can expect world-class vegan chow (see menu), with main meal by chef David Silver of Second Helpings, appetizers by Blossom Du Jour and The Regal Vegan, and scrumptious desserts from Vegan Treats Bakery Speakers Bruce Friedrich (of PETA) and director Jenny Brown, with emcee Dan Piraro

Warren Defever
Devon Warren

Music by Warren Defever/His Name Is Alive, who will be deejaying and playing all the old classics as well as songs from the new album “Midnight Bell Jams”… and GirlieGirl Army Founder Chloe Jo Davis will indeed be in the house!
