Vegan Outreach, an international nonprofit, is coordinating an event in Santa Barbara next month called the Vegan Chef Challenge. Join the VCC September 1-30 for an entire month of new vegan options all over Santa Barbara.

During this time, restaurants throughout the Santa Barbara area will feature special vegan menu items. Diners have the opportunity to go visit restaurants, enjoy meals, vote, comment, and post photos of the vegan meals they have ordered.

This month-long event brings all diners, not just vegans, together to appreciate the talents of local chefs. Visit veganchefchallenge.org/SantaBarbara
