Healthy World Sedona (HWS) produced the Sedona VegFest on a weekend in January for four consecutive years beginning in 2017. It was founded as an all-volunteer 501(c)(3) nonprofit by Don Fries and Bev Bow in 2016 for the purpose of educating and inspiring the public to adopt a whole food, plant-based lifestyle for personal health, to eliminate unnecessary suffering and death of animals raised for food, and to reduce global warming and other environmental effects caused by animal agriculture. HWS serves primarily Sedona and the Verde Valley in northern Arizona, but attracted attendees to Sedona VegFest from across the U.S. and internationally as far as South Korea.

And if you approve of our mission and are able to help support it, donations are very much appreciated and always go entirely toward the HWS programs.
