The Decatur Vegetarian Society (DVS) was formed in the spring of 2007 to serve
the Decatur, IL area. The society is open to anyone who has an interest in any
aspect of vegetarianism, healthy eating, environmentalism, or animal rights. We
are an informal group that meets the third Wednesday of every month at the
Unitarian-Universalist Fellowship of Decatur (3773 N. MacArthur Road). We have
vegetarian potlucks at all of our meetings to introduce people to the wholesome
and tasty possibilities of meatless food preparation. The potlucks are
accompanied by sometimes lively discussions about vegetarian issues,
particularly dietary choices and various food options that are available to
people. Also, we usually have programs following the meals, either by live
presenters or by informative videos of professional speakers on a variety of
topics. Our meetings are free and open to the public, but we do ask for
contributions (money or food) if people attend the potlucks.
