While total plant based events are fairly rare in the Knoxville area, occasionally there are a few. Additionally we will help promote other organizations such as the "Scruffy City Vegan Fest" , the "Vegetarian Society of East Tennessee," "Knoxville Vegan Facebook Group," and of course our own "TheVeggielink" meetup group and others as they promote the plant based lifestyle throughout the area. Please check our "Restaurants/Group" page for additional information and links.
