NEGAUNEE -- Who says vegans can't enjoy a Thanksgiving meal too? The Northern Vegan club met today at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Negaunee for the 8th annual vegan Thanksgiving potluck.

All of the food was made without any animal ingredients. They had a variety of dishes and some Thanksgiving favorites like vegan mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, and even pie. They also had tofurkey, and non-traditional foods like quinoa salad and tabouli .

"It's a chance for vegans to get together and have an all vegan Thanksgiving which is kind of a unique thing," says Jeff Plummer, a founding member of Northern Vegan. "We do it at a time where it still allows them, if they need to go to a traditional family event after, they can still go, but they've already been fed."

The Northern Vegans meet monthly at local restaurants to share a meal together to find out where they will be in December, you can go to their website, http://northernvegans.com/, or go to their facebook page, Northern Vegans.
