VSDC Vegan WFPB SOS Free Potluck

Join the [Veg Society of DC](vsdc.org) for our new monthly Vegan WFPB SOS Free potluck! We look forward to sharing a meal and conversation with those interested in or living a Vegan WFPB SOS-free lifestyle.

**What is Vegan WFPB SOS Free?** A whole-food plant-based (WFPB) SOS-free diet includes whole grains, tubers, fruits, vegetables, legumes, nuts, and seeds. It eliminates animal products, salt, oil, and sugar (SOS), and processed foods. You can [learn more](www.forksoverknives.com/how-tos/plant-based-primer-beginners-guide-starting-plant-based-diet).

**Please Bring:**

* A dish that serves 6 – 8 people per person attending. The food must be vegan (no red meat, chicken, turkey, fish, seafood, eggs, cheese, butter, cream, yogurt or any other dairy products, or honey or gelatin) as well as salt, oil, and sugar-free.
* A serving utensil
* A copy of the recipe and include your name on it so people can identify who made each dish.
* A drink for yourself or one to share. Nonalcoholic, please.
* To help reduce waste, you can also bring your reusable plate, cup, and utensils.
* There is an oven and microwave onsite, but space is very limited, so it will be reserved for a quick reheat rather than cooking.

**Questions:** Please reach out to [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) with questions or to help plan future WFPB events.

**Transportation:** The home is a short walk from the Friendship Heights Metro stop. On-street parking is available in the area.

**Weather:** In case of bad weather, be sure to check the comments on this for any updates from the organizers on the morning of the event.

**Sponsored By:** This event is sponsored by the Veg Society’s Whole Food Plant-Based Affinity Group. The affinity group offers those who want to engage with this lifestyle opportunities to connect, learn, and enjoy great food. The group gathers for potlucks, lunches at [Greenfare Organic Café](https://vsdc.us17.list-manage.com/track/click?u=7775b08c060411688e929ff89&id=b27764da70&e=4227fca4bb), educational programs, and other outings. The WFPB Affinity Group is a part of PCRM’s [Building Healthy Communities Action Network](https://www.pcrm.org/buildinghealthycommunities).

**Our Appreciation:** We thank the [Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine](www.PCRM.org) for hosting this event at its facility and for its work promoting plant-based diets.
