Toronto Vegetarian Association

Run or Walk for the Toronto Vegetarian Association at the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon on Sunday, September 27th, 2009!

What better way to inspire people to choose a healthier, greener, more peaceful lifestyle than to join the Toronto Vegetarian Team at the Scotiabank Toronto Waterfront Marathon?

Founded in 1945, the Toronto Vegetarian Association is a volunteer-driven charitable organization devoted to providing information and support to people who are interested in making healthier, greener, more peaceful food choices.

We host the Annual Vegetarian Food Fair each September, the largest of its kind in North America and celebrating its 25th anniversary this year at the Harbourfront Centre. We also distribute a comprehensive Vegetarian Directory of restaurants, health food stores and more across the city, host healthy eating workshops about the benefits and how-to of adopting a plant-based diet, and operate a drop-in resource centre with a large collection of vegetarian cookbooks and more.

Why Join the Toronto Vegetarian Team?

Joining our team of runners is an opportunity to support the Toronto Vegetarian Association and celebrate the vegetarian community in Toronto! Together, we'll demonstrate that vegetarians are strong, active, athletic and healthy!
