Pride open day at The Veg Lord
The Veg Lord is a queer owned small business built on strong foundations: they’re passionate about providing quality produce at accessible prices and giving back to the community around them. Everything they do is led by this and they want to enable people to cook and provide for themselves; try new foods; get creative in the kitchen and feel a sense of achievement when they’ve produced a nutritious meal (even better if they’ve used one of our very own recipe cards!). When you’re eating out, you know you can get the same great quality as we provide a number of cafes and restaurants in the local area too. Opened in May 2022 from humble beginnings, the couple Matt and Mark want to leave behind a legacy of an example of a truly community-led business, that brings people together through a love of food. Join them at their open Pride day on 22nd August when you will enjoy food stalls, DJ and entertainment, an art exhibition and much more. Funds will also be raised for George House Trust.
