four days of absolute bliss at Vegan Camp Out ✌🏻
this was my first time at the festival and it definitely won’t be my last! days consisted of: gorgeous food, making spectacular new friendships, insightful talks and lots of celebrations! 🥳
one thing i would like to shout about is the screening of ’s film the dying trade. I obviously didn’t film any content during this screening, so that’s why it’s not in the reel, but this film was beautifully put together. it shows the relationship between a vegan activist (jack) and his father, a slaughterhouse worker. such moving stuff. it highlights the dilemma vegans often face when it comes to choosing between the love we have for our families and the passion we have for our veganism.
wrapped up my weekend with even MORE gorgeous food, a smashing set from Sara Pascoe, some line-dancing, raving and a bizarre taylor swift cult gathering. 🥳
overall a great experience. I’d definitely recommend it to other vegans who are keen to meet like minded folk, have a life affirming experience and eat meals whilst not having to worry if your food has got milk powder in it 🤪
I’d also recommend it to non-vegans. you can enjoy music, quality food and potentially learn some things you didn’t know about the atrocities being committed in farms, labs and slaughterhouses across the country.
I will be returning VCO 🏕️
