Toronto Vegetarian Association (TVA)

Inspiring people to choose a healthier, greener, more peaceful lifestyle.The Toronto Vegetarian Association is a volunteer-driven, charitable organization committed to educating people about the benefits of a vegetarian diet, supporting those who wish to eliminate their consumption of animal products and celebrating the diversity of vegetarian food and culture. The Toronto Vegetarian Association hosts the Annual Vegetarian Food Fair, the largest event of its kind in North America. Held in Toronto over the second weekend of September, the Food Fair offers visitors a great opportunity to learn about vegetarian issues and to sample delicious vegetarian cuisine. TVA publishes an informative website, veg.ca and a Vegetarian Directory, which lists vegetarian restaurants, health food stores and other businesses. The organization coordinates the Veggie Challenge campaign, which helps people try a vegetarian or vegan diet for one week. Another important need is met by the TVA Resource Centre which offers a variety of books, cookbooks, magazines, DVDs and videos.
