Lunch at Vegan Pizza Land Coffee Counter

Vegan Pizza Land recently opened a coffee counter that also sells lunch (not pizza). They recently opened on Saturdays until 1:30. There isn’t any seating, so hopefully the weather will be good and we can eat in the park nearby. If it rains, we can find a spot in the mill to eat. I recommend parking at Eastworks and walking one building over. It’s right on the bike path, so we could also walk after lunch if the weather cooperates.

Vegan Pizza at Abandoned Building Brewery

I do not have any free Saturdays in June, so I’m switching things up! Vegan Pizza Land is now serving vegan pizza every Thursday-Sunday in the Abandoned Building beer garden. Their pizza is delicious, as is everything else they serve, and there’s lots of seating in the beer garden if it’s a nice night (or inside the brewery if not). Join us for some pizza, and perhaps a beer if you so choose!

Lunch at Wild Chestnut and music at Drawing Board Brewing

We are going to deviate from the second Saturday of the month in March. Sheryl found out that Drawing Board Brewing, which is right next door, will have a live band at 4:00 on March 18 performing Irish music in honor of St. Patty’s Day. So she thought it would be fun (and I agree) to head over there after lunch. No pressure to do both, but Drawing Board is another great Florence business to support. They have non-alcoholic drinks for those who do not want beer.

Lunch at Wild Chestnut Cafe

Last week’s lunch went so well, we have decided to make it a monthly event! So be on the lookout for second Saturday lunches at Wild Chestnut. We will start an hour later this time to try and avoid some of the lunch rush. Hope to see you there!

Lunch at All of Us Natural Foods

There’s a new vegan restaurant in South Deerfield, let’s check it out! If we are a small group (less than ten), we can sit outside (weather permitting). If there are more than ten of us, they can accommodate us inside. I need to give a headcount a few days in advance, so please give a definite yes by Wednesday, August 17. Here’s a link to their website: https://allofusnaturalfoods.square.site/

Vegan Pizza Land at Wild Chestnut Cafe

Vegan Pizza Land, the delicious vegan pizza pop-up, will be at Wild Chestnut Cafe next Thursday! Let’s support them and the cafe. Pizza starts at 5; I plan to arrive by 5:30. Stop by any time; they usually serve until 8 or whenever they run out of pizza.

Lunch at The Humble Peach

Let’s have lunch at the area’s newest vegan restaurant! There is no indoor seating, so this will be an outdoor event with a rain date of June 26. There are two small tables outside, so if we are a small enough group, we can eat there. If we are a larger group, or the tables are unavailable, we can take our lunch to go and eat in one of the parks in downtown Amherst. Bring a blanket or chair to sit on.

Brunch at Pulse

Let's meet for Pulse's delicious vegan brunch! I will try to reserve the large table near the door, though if the weather is nice, maybe we can move outdoors. I'll keep an eye on the forecast. Afterward, if the weather allows, we can take a walk on the rail trail if people are interested.

Dinner at Pulse

It’s been awhile - let’s have dinner together! This will be an indoor event. I am hoping to keep the group at about ten people or so. Please only RSVP “yes” if you definitely plan to attend. I am picking a start time of 5:30 because the restaurant closes at 7. If you can’t make it quite that early, feel free to join us when you can. I’ll try to reserve the large table just to the left of the main doors.

Canceled Reservoir walk and possible lunch

Let's enjoy fall with a walk around the Whiting Street Reservoir! Park on Mountain Park Road; we will meet at the entrance to the reservoir before the road curves to go up the mountain. After our walk, we can get some lunch if people are up for it/feel comfortable eating out. If the weather allows, we can go somewhere with outdoor seating. We will be near Easthampton, Northampton, and Holyoke, so we will have many options. If you'd like to just join us for a walk, that's fine too!

Outdoor Vegan Block Party

This event is sponsored by Vegfest413. This is an outdoor event, and masks are required. I believe they are limiting attendees as well. I am posting this as informational, not a specific meetup. I will be helping Sheryl at the WMARA table at the beginning of the event if you'd like to stop by and say hello. Sheryl will be there all day. Visit vegfest413.com for more details.

Outdoor Dinner at Pulse

I was away for most of July, but I'm back in town now and would love to get together with people! Let's meet for dinner outdoors at Pulse. I will plan to keep this event outside unless there is very inclement weather. Pulse closes at 7, so I'm going to plan a rather early start time of 5:30. Hopefully that works okay for those who have to work that day. If you can't get there until a little later, no worries! Please keep your RSVP updated so I can ask Pulse to reserve the right size table(s). Hope to see you next week!
