Northwest VEG: Your Local Veg Resource
Welcome to Northwest VEG! We are a non-profit organization in and around Portland, Oregon dedicated to bringing awareness to the power of a veg lifestyle and helping support people in their transition toward making healthier, more sustainable and compassionate food choices.

Our plant-based potlucks and events explore delicious vegan foods, and meeting other vegetarians and vegans. If our potlucks happen to be your only vegan meal of the month, you'll be sure to go home well fed! In this site you can find information about joining and/or volunteering with Northwest VEG.

Hungry, but no time to cook? Check out our list of restaurants that are vegan, vegetarian or offer excellent veggie options. Want company? Join us for a dine-out, usually held the second Saturday of each month at a restaurant that offers tasty vegan options.

Maybe you're looking for more information on a plant-based diet or how to cook wonderful vegan foods? Check out our Master Vegetarian Program and VEG 101 classes. Both classes have received rave reviews!
