The Dallas VegFest 2024 | September 22

The Challenge

In 2015, a new analysis revealed that over a span of 5 years, cancers attributable to unhealthy eating among adults in the US resulted in direct medical costs of $4.83 billion. These calculations are based on the estimated number of cancer cases associated with eating a diet primarily consisting of processed meats, red meats, and sugar-sweetened beverages.

The Dallas VegFest aims to change the narrative around that problem and equip the members of the Oak Cliff community with the knowledge and tools to live a healthier, happier lifestyle.

Why Healthy Eating Matters

“The Dallas VegFest is an incredibly impactful event! I was astounded by all of the nutrition resources available to participants and learned a great deal from the workshops and cooking demonstrations. I left the VegFest feeling empowered and equipped to become more healthy with my newfound knowledge and free produce. The event is affecting meaningful change in the lives of Oak Cliff residents and I can’t wait to be a part of the growth!”
