World Vegan Month is being celebrated far and wide at local restaurants citywide all throughout November. In fact, Portland was recently named Best Vegan City in the US! We are so lucky to enjoy the fruits of the bustling Vegan foodie scene here! To celebrate World Vegan Month, Veganizer has joined forces with 30+ vegan restaurants and carts in PDX to bring you delicious food and drink specials from November 1 to November 30. Each participating location will be donating a portion of sales from their World Vegan Month specials to a selected nonprofit. Starting at $5, specials include appetizers, entrees, desserts, and drinks. Check out the restaurants and non-profits they are supporting here and get out there to support those and so many more local vegan businesses below:
