World Wide Vegan Bake Sale in Austin Tx.!
Not a big surprise that one of the most progressive cities in the U.S. participated in the World Wide Vegan Bake Sale to support local animal sanctuary "Sunny Day Farms". An awesome rescue farm outside of San Antonio run by an even more awesome woman: Brooke Chavez. She rescues abused, neglected and displaced farm animals and brings them "home" to her amazing and loving sanctuary. She is a true St. Francis! Brooke is also a mom and a wife and puts in a TON of her own money every month to keep the place up and running. The bake sale raised $1,033 for Sunny Day Farms! I was proud to be a small part of it and my little food critic LOVED the cupcakes I made. He even TRIED to snag another before we left but that wasn't going to happen ;).....As we were driving away he said he was sad to leave and that he "loved vegan bake sales!" He can't wait to go visit the animals!
