Event Description
Event hosted by Northbay Vegan Events.

Welcome to the Encore Vegan Book Club! We meet every Tuesday evening at Gaia's Garden at the community table in the back. We have optional social time from 6:00-7:00 p.m. followed by our book discussion from 7:00-8:00 p.m.

We take turns choosing books. We are currently reading The Blue Zones: Lessons for Living Longer From the People Who've Lived the Longest by longevity expert and National Geographic writer Dan Buettner. 

Everyone is welcome at our book discussions, including vegans, vegetarians, semi-vegetarians, veg-curious omnivores, and everything in between. We can all learn from each other as we talk about various vegan-friendly books--even if we approach them from different perspectives.

Our optional social time before our book discussions is a good time to get to know each other better, to talk about our unique food and lifestyle journeys, and to just have fun together! Please feel free to join us for the social hour whether or not you choose to stay for the book discussion.

Please also feel free to come to the book discussion even if you don't have the book or haven't finished the reading for the week. Those of us who have done the reading will share enough about the subject matter that you will likely find it easy to participate meaningfully in the discussion. You're also welcome to just listen if you prefer.

Gaia's Garden always accommodates our group with great generosity, grace, and humor. So let's each do our best to honor the restaurant's policy of a $5.00 minimum purchase per person. Please feel free to order and eat during the social hour or the book discussion or both. Out of respect for Gaia's Garden's wonderful hospitality, please refrain from bringing in outside food or beverages for consumption while inside the restaurant.

We look forward to seeing you and to learning together!
