The Palmetto Plant Eaters Club is free, open to the public, and meets monthly to teach and support whole-food, plant-based vegan eating. The Club will host Carla Golden as its guest speaker on Wednesday, November 6th at 6:30pm at the Unitarian Universalist Congregation of the Lowcountry building at 110 Malphrus Road in Bluffton, SC. She will discuss the benefits of a whole food, plant-based vegan diet to prevent and reverse chronic diseases such as heart disease, obesity, diabetes type 2, autoimmune disorders, and many cancers. The focus will be on the basics for getting started while Carla and other experienced practitioners will be on hand to lend encouragement, support, and plentiful resources for beginners.
The one hour Palmetto Plant Eaters Club meeting will consist of introductions, announcements, upcoming calendar events, and the main presentation. Afterwards a Q&A session will take place. Our meetings are for the curious, newbies, and longtime plant-based vegan practitioners alike. A drawing will be held and one vegan prize will be given away to one meeting attendee. Must be present to win. Learn more about the Palmetto Plant Eaters Club at PalmettoPlantEaters.com
