Bring on the sugar rushes and the food comas, because the Calgary Vegan Bake Sale is back for its seventh year this weekend. I couldn’t be more overjoyed because a) I love baking, and b) I love helping animals. And, being a regular volunteer baker for this bake sale, I get to combine both of these passions to create a truly satisfying weekend. It's a real win-win!*

If you’re new to the Calgary Vegan Bake Sale, here’s the
scoop: every year, around May or June, the hardworking bake sale team sets up
shop in the parking lot of the Community Natural Foods Chinook Market (202 61 Ave S.W.)
to sell homemade vegan goodies of all shapes and sizes to benefit two great local animal charities. This year, we’ll be selling a variety of goodies and raffle
tickets from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., or until we completely sell out, and all
proceeds will benefit Alberta Spay & Neuter Task Force and The Alice Sanctuary.
