Compassionfest presents "Vegan Holiday Bazaar." Please join us for a vegan winter wonderland experience, featuring local animal-friendly food vendors, crafters and product providers. Stop by our welcome table to find out more information and how you can help our chosen compassionate causes. Some proceeds of this year's winter market will benefit the well-being of our Turkey friends. This is an opportunity to shop for local, eco-friendly, cruelty-free products while getting to know your community. Three Whole Days of inclusiveness, celebrating people, animals, in harmony with the land.
