Bust out your favorite organic cotton T-shirt as it’s time for the Boston Vegetarian Food Festival. Things kick off on October 31 and run through November 1 at the Reggie Lewis Athletic Center in Beantown. We know that it’s hard to resist bacon for an entire day, but festival organizers have such a full lineup that you won’t even remember what a pig tastes like.

There will be plenty of exhibitors hawking their vegetarian wares and offering a ton of free samples, so you may want to skip breakfast for this one. Once you’ve discovered your new favorite ingredient, take in a presentation by professional chefs so you can learn how to prepare some new dishes. Maybe they’ll even teach you that you really do enjoy broccoli—you were just making it wrong for all those years. This is the longest running festival of its kind in the country, so you won’t be disappointed. They just want to share a love for delicious plants with you and your friends.

The best part of the festival is that everything is totally free. Admission is free, the speakers and presentations are free, even parking in Boston is free. There’s over 120 exhibitors so you may want to pace yourself, or at least plan on attending both days of the festival. After all, you really want to ensure that you eat as many free samples as possible. Maybe you’ll even learn something during the festival, after all, vegetables are pretty healthy. Let’s just hope they have some fries—those are vegetables, you know.
