Is a network event where attendees are exposed to a host of plant based vendors, speakers, entertainment, and more. The Veggie Connection aims to not only create awareness regarding the plant based lifestyle, but to ensure that it is accessible, enjoyable and sustainable for all who are on this journey towards wellness and abundance.
The Veggie Connection Event was created to fill the space where these sorts of events are not occurring. We feel that people shouldn’t have to travel far just to experience an event of this nature that usually occurs in a major city.
Our events are based on a more intimate type setting. We like for our attendees to be able to take their time to talk and interact with each vendor, speaker, entertainer, and not be overcrowded. Attendees can relax and enjoy themselves in an air condition facility or in a park setting with blankets and tents.
Whether you’re vegan, vegetarian, or other. The Veggie Connection Event will provide you with helpful information through plant based, wellness options. We strive to make our events fun and inclusive, with all the diverse reasons in which people choose a plant based lifestyle.
For vending, speaking, and sponsorship information for any of our events please email us: theveggieconnection@outlook.com
MASTA ACE stands as one of rap’s great anomalies. The Brownsville, Brooklyn, New York artist emerged in the late 1980s, delivering next-level rhymes as part of Marley Marl’s Juice Crew with Big Daddy Kane, Biz Markie, Kool G. Rap and others. In 2000 an event helped redirect MASTA ACE's personal life. That year, he was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis (MS), though he did not reveal to the public that he had the disease until 2013. Living with MS led ACE to have a new dedication to health and fitness, something that impacted every aspect of his life, notably his music.
“I have simply become more introspective as I have grown older,” MASTA ACE reveals. "The realities of life and our mortality on this earth have caused me to look within and pull from those emotions.”
