Lori’s Natural Foods
We are so excited to say that our newest Gold Sponsor is Lori’s Natural Foods Center— we look forward to seeing them this year at the VegFest!
Lori’s has been a mainstay in the health community of Rochester for several decades, and has been a strong supporter of our programs. They told us that they are sponsoring us again because they want to let as many people as possible know about veganism, and they had a great time last year to boot! Thank you!

Burning Books is returning to VegFest! This Buffalo bookstore had a popular booth last year with tons of interesting books on a variety of progressive topics. We are very excited to have them return!
GreenSpark Solar
Thank you to our Silver Sponsor and exhibitor GreenSpark Solar! Previously known as SunCommon, GreenSpark will be bringing their solar-powered charging station to VegFest so you can charge all your devices up sustainably!
GreenSpark, a Certified B Corporation, helps people put solar cells on their home’s roof, and if that isn’t practical for someone, they also sell solar energy from a local solar farm at prices competitive to conventional suppliers.
They’ll also make a donation to VegFest for every customer who mentions Rochester VegFest when they apply, or who apply after signing up for more information at the festival. So tell them we sent you!

We are thrilled to announce that ESL Federal Credit Union is the first financial institution to donate to the 2018 Rochester Veg Fest with an in-kind sponsorship of the event!
ESL is the largest locally-led financial services institution in the Greater Rochester area, and it’s one of the largest credit unions in New York State!

The Red Fern will be at VegFest 2018! Thank you to Andrea for all you do for us year-’round!
The Red Fern is a vegan restaurant at the corner of Park Ave and Oxford Street in Rochester. Of course they’re in our Roc Vegan Guide, and they offer a discount on our Savings Card as well.
