#### Hello! And welcome to the UC Davis Ultimate Vegan Guide. Davis, home of the Aggies, is located in Yolo County neighboring with the Bay Area, Lake Tahoe, and Sacramento. Here you will find a charming college town with a Northern California vibe filled with bicycles (22,000 bicycles can be found on campus every day!!), grassy fields and beautiful trees, happy people, and most importantly, delicious veggie food! 


#### UC Davis prides itself in its commitment to sustainability. The campus hopes to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions. And so, you can feel a campus culture centered around healthy and environmentally conscious living. It is easy to be vegan, vegetarian, plant based, and health conscious in this community. You will find a multitude of clubs and organizations focused on animal rights, sustainability, environmental justice, food justice, and way more. One of the most treasured activities in Davis is the Farmer’s Market — families and students flock to downtown to try all of the healthy, local produce and to share a meal on the grassy field while listening to the live bands.

#### We are Athena, Isa, and Chelsea, three vegan yoga teaching babes excited to show you the way to plant based and healthy living in Davis. Athena is a graduate from UC Davis with a degree in Nutrition. Since she has graduated, she’s been traveling the world — teaching yoga and seeking out the best vegan spots worldwide! Most recently, Athena lived with Isa in Thailand where they made the Vegan Guide to Bangkok. Isa is in her last year at UC Davis majoring in American Studies and Education. She hopes to move to Bali with Athena in the summer! Chelsea is a fourth year international agricultural development major with a strong interest in regenerative agriculture. She hopes to use this knowledge to work with small scale women farmers around the world by promoting soil health education to ultimately improve women’s and gender equality and economic opportunity. All three of us teach for the Yoga Club on Campus, and we love to geek out over vegetables… and vegan donuts!

Awesome to hear this. My Dad graduated from Rice in 1944!  Pretty sure all food was local then as well.

Was probably a very different place back then Chris!

Learn about Rice's Plant-Based journey and commitment to sustainable food systems in this vegan college guide!

#### [Rice University](http://www.rice.edu/) is a research university located in Houston, Texas, near the Texas Medical Center and the Museum District. With only about 4,000 undergraduates and 3,000 post-graduates, Rice is a relatively small school focused on undergraduate teaching. Before matriculation, each undergraduate is randomly assigned to one of eleven residential colleges, a system similar to college programs at Oxford, Cambridge, Yale, or even Harry Potter’s houses. Each college has its own culture and dorms. Among the colleges, six serveries or dining halls (South, Sid Richardson, Seibel, Baker, West and North) provide food for students. The servery food, which is planned, cooked, and served by culinary professionals, has received high rankings by USA Today and the Princeton Review. Not surprising, considering that 90% of the food is cooked from scratch. Additionally, the chefs are committed to using local produce, with 25% of ingredients coming from vendors within a 200-mile radius, which includes Rice’s own weekly [Farmers’ Market.](http://www.magazine.rice.edu/2017/07/rices-food-revolution) 

#### Given Rice’s increasing focus on a plant-based diet (termed [My Plant-Based Journey](http://dining.rice.edu/our-plant-based-journey/)), eating as a vegan, vegetarian, or omnivore who wants to eat more plants is feasible and exciting. With creative plant-based dishes like cardamom-creamed spinach, muffins, pizza, and chocolate beet-cupcakes, students are well-fed and rarely disappointed. Daily options always include a salad bar with quinoa, boiled eggs, nuts, seeds, and all types of vegetables. Fruit and yogurt are also almost always available. Hot items rotate daily.

so many exciting events and yummy food! the multi-coloured juice from Oasis Jimma Juice Bar looks so interesting :O

omg so cute! the vegan society got visited by a bunch of little dressed-up piggies!

This is a fantastic resource for everyone looking to eat plant based and healthier. Thanks to all for putting it together!

I know some people going to these schools!  I'll let them know about it

Barnumbia - or the combined communities of Columbia University and Barnard College - is nestled in Upper Manhattan where you'll find some of the best plant-based options at the shared dining halls. Download the full guide to get your munch on.

#### Situated in the Upper West Side of Manhattan, Columbia University stands tall as one of the top leaders in higher education. Nestled across from Columbia’s campus is Barnard College, a small liberal arts college dedicated to the success of women. Together they make up Barnumbia, and share a unique partnership in academia which allow students to benefit from their interconnected relation. While the Barnumbia relationship may be confusing for most, one aspect is clear to all students: Barnard and Columbia students have full access to each other’s dining halls. Between all the exams, studying, extracurriculars, internships, and work, meals have become an important social and relaxing part of our time on campus. While Barnumbia lacks in plant-based dishes compared to NYU, there has been a noticeable improvement in the recent years. There are a variety of delicious, healthy and affordable foods for both omnivores and herbivores at Barnumbia. My goal in creating this guide is to highlight the tastiest vegan-friendly options on and off campus and feature a few members of our community that are working hard to promote sustainability. With that in mind, I hope this guide encourages the greater Columbia community to consciously consume more plant-based meals and helps students, faculty, and NYC visitors understand how eating plant-based positively impacts individual health, our environment and animal welfare. I invite you to experience the plant based movement for yourself and opt for one of the delicious vegan options I reviewed in the full guide.

Eat well as a vegan at Wesleyan with abillionveg and Veg Out's plant-based guide!

### Summary

#### Veganism used to feel limiting. Now, that is no longer the case.

#### Whether dining on campus or venturing into town for a meal, students have an abundance of plant-based options. Despite the abundance, finding plant-based food takes some getting used to; this guide is meant to facilitate that process. Learn how to reduce your meat and dairy consumption at Wesleyan without compromising good flavors and good health! For more in-depth reviews of dishes from each dining hall and restaurant, search [#vegout](https://www.abillionveg.com/hashtags/vegout) on [abillionveg.com](https://www.abillionveg.com) or the abillionveg app!

#### **You can help promote food justice & sustainability!**

#### Reducing our consumption of animal products is one of the most direct ways we can promote food justice and sustainability. Ninety-nine percent of meat consumed in the US comes from factory farms, which destroy the environment and exploit their workers, all the while producing unhealthful products and falsely marketing them as necessary components of a well-rounded diet. Going plant-based counteracts the harmful effects of the meat and dairy industries.

#### **Crowd out, don’t cut out.**

#### In Veg Out, we like to think about diet changes in positive terms: instead of focusing on what you’re lacking when you cut back on animal products, think about the new products you’re adding to your cuisine! There’s so much good food available these days, and especially for Wesleyan students, that it’s easy to crowd out meat and dairy with tasty alternatives.
