Fort Wayne's vegan options are plentiful, according to Dahman, and include something for every appetite.

November 1st is World Vegan Day, and officially kicks off a whole month devoted to plant based living.

In celebration, vegan lifestyle coach Heather Dahman has organized Fort Wayne's first Vegan Restaurant Week, which begins on Monday, November 4th.

Last week WBOI's Julia Meek invited Dahman into the studio to discuss global development of the vegan movement, how our local sources for vegetarian and vegan fare stack up to other cities and countries and what this new, upcoming culinary adventure is all about.

Fort Wayne Vegan Restaurant Week
