One of the many sad casualties of back-to-back hurricanes was the Bay area’s Tampa Bay Veg Fest. But on brand for the vegan community, an alternative has emerged.

South Tampa’s WeVegan Cafe and vegan fitness coach John Thomas have teamed up to stage this weekend’s “Vegan Foodie Fest,” which promises to bring nearly two dozen plant-based vendors like Seasoned Green., Vegans Explore, and The Vegan Halal Cart to the parking lot at 4326 S Manhattan Ave, from 11 a.m.-5 p.m. on Saturday (a full vendor list is at the bottom of the post).

Sandra Aguilar-Carson, owner and baker of WeVeganEats and WeVegan Cafe, told Creative Loafing Tampa Bay that her team, which includes Nick Alami, owner of Vegan International Co., put the foodie fest together in the three weeks since finding out the bad news about Tampa Bay Veg Fest.

“Our hope is to still bring the community together and share some good food, local artistry, and a place for everyone to still be able to gather. We also wanted to create a space for the vendors that we’re planning on participating to still have the opportunity to share their delicious vegan food with the community,” she added.
