The San Francisco Vegan Society is an educational, all-volunteer, nonprofit organization promoting the tremendous benefits of a plant-based diet and a healthy, ethical, sustainable vegan way of life. Founded in 1968, we offer a community for people to meet, learn, exchange ideas and information, and interact with others interested in compassionate living.The San Francisco Vegan Society welcomes people wherever they are on the path to an all-plant, vegan diet and lifestyle. We welcome anyone curious about learning more about healthy food or seeking social connection. People of all ages, including children, are invited to join. Many of our events are free of charge, and we have several board members and key volunteers who organize our gatherings.
