Hi, I would love a chance win these tickets! I am super excited about this event. My husband and I have been vegetarian since being high school sweethearts 12 years ago and decided to take the plunge into Veganism about 7 months ago. We’ve never felt better. We live breath and eat nutrition and natural health and are so passionate about this lifestyle. Getting to be immersed in it for the weekend would be a dream since it is so hard to find like-minded people/restaurants in our area. Thank you for the opportunity and Good Luck to all. ;o)

I am in NY for this week only and would LOVE to have a chance to attend this event! It looks incredible (and a far cry from many of the events I have ended up at….with nothing to eat!).
Whatever the case, best of luck with the coordination, execution, and enjoyment of the weekend. It seems like a grand and delicious affair!

Having discovered the raw vegan/vegan lifestyle only three years ago, I am amazed at how far I’ve come in my personal journey to achieve optimal health, strength and metal clarity. What started as merely a desperate search for a sustainable “diet” to lose weight and keep it off, this discovery has transformed into a full blown passion and possible lifelong career path (currently pursuing a graduate degree in nutrition). The best things about the world of health/nutrition and the vegan lifestyle, however, are the ever expanding knowledge base, and the ability to spread that knowledge and improve the lives of people around us and beyond. I heard about The Seed: A Vegan Experience only a couple weeks ago and would love to get knowledge, tips and ideas from the speakers, see the influential documentaries with the Q+A, and especially gain insight from the guest athlete speakers. At this point, I am open to all information that comes my way, and this would be a perfect opportunity to see, discover, taste and completely immerse myself in this incredible lifestyle and learn firsthand from the experts who have taken their time to speak to us. Thank you for this opportunity to attend the event.
