New Vegan Supper Club

Vancouver animal-rights activists Carissa Thorpe and Tara-Lee Gardner have started a new venture called Harmless Innovations, which they plan to use as a means of activating their local community through a secret vegan supper club as well as bake sales and catering. The duo plan to launch the first installment of the supper club on January 7 with an appetizer night and follow with themes, such as a diner night or special Valentine’s Day edition, and hope that their creative events will help to raise awareness of the benefits of a vegan lifestyle. Thorpe tells Vancouver online news source Straight, “ … What we’re looking to do is have a vegan presence in places that aren’t necessarily vegan.”
