Event Description
Event hosted by Northbay Vegan Events.

This Earth Day, show your love for cows and our planet by joining us as we speak out for the cows raised for dairy and to encourage people who truly love animals to go vegan!

Did you know that cows in Sonoma County typically drink 31 gallons of water a day? And during the recent four-year drought, one Sonoma County farm had 700 cows drinking 35-40 gallons A DAY! According to the US Environmental Protection Agency, a farm with 2500 dairy cows produces roughly as much waste in a year as the city of Minneapolis!

F.E.P. is located in an area where people see cows on green fields, and they never really know the anguish the mother cows feel at having their babies taken away at birth or understand the frustration of the female calves who are held captive in crates.

Our goal is to help commuters, who drive by these cows, understand the underlying cruelty of the dairy industry and its impact on our planet. By being a consistent presence in the community, we will be able to provide a counter to the very heavy pro-dairy marketing in the area.

We encourage you to bring your reusable water bottle, and please dress appropriate for the weather. We will provide signs and literature.
