A vegan and cruelty-free market is coming to Preston later this month.
The event at Chew’s Yard on Saturday 31 January will celebrate ethical, plant-based living with a day full of food, handmade goods, and live music.
Chew’s Yard is home to much-loved plant-based food trader Seitanic. The three additional traders – Chamo, Trough, and Where’s Wala – will also be serving plant-based options.
The main bar will be serving a selection of vegan lagers, including Lukas and Green Mountain, as well as hot and cold drinks.
