About M.R.V.E.G

There are so many good reasons to eat more veg, more often. Not only is it better for the planet, plant based and plant rich diets have positive impacts for our health and that of animals that share our earth.

Our group’s vision is connection, kindness, sustainability, health and wellbeing through plant-based eating.

We are part of an inclusive movement in the Macedon Ranges that builds community and encourages and empowers individuals towards healthy and sustainable plant-based eating.

The Macedon Ranges VEG Group (MR VEG) is open to anyone interested in increasing the amount of plant based foods in their diet. We welcome people of all dietary preferences and promote an inclusive and supportive community.

Join our facebook group Eat More Veg in the Macedon Ranges for recipe ideas and tips on eating more veg. Join our newsletter to keep in touch with our activities, events and competitions. Email us to get in touch.
