STL Vegan Market reaches a record-breaking 730,000 St. Louisans!

🥳💚🛒 Thank you to the nearly 500 guests and roughly 40 vendors who joined us last month at Vegtoberfest, our final vegan market of the season!

Altogether this market season, over 5,700 attendees joined us, and we conservatively reached over 730,000 St. Louisans, generating nearly 2.4 million views in the process. That’s right: STL Vegan Market reached over 1 in 4 St. Louisans an average of more than three times each this year alone!

The value of this salience is hard to overstate: the market has cemented itself as a vegan awareness-raising powerhouse, championing veganism across the St. Louis metro area more effectively than any other vegan event or initiative.

We are so grateful to the thousands of supporters who made this our most remarkable season yet, all the volunteers, donors, vendors, sponsors, attendees, and casual supporters who made the market several times more impactful than it was just last year.

One final, well-deserved thank you to our top sponsor, Carol House Furniture, alongside Bougie Bites, Bombay Food Junkies, Sun Solar, Harvest Shreds, Seedz Cafe, Pieces Board Game Bar and Cafe, and Pearl’s Plant Kitchen, all of whom played a critical role in this year’s success.

We look forward to continuing this tradition into its fourth season in 2026, and we are so proud to serve our local vegan community, which continues to grow by leaps and bounds thanks, in part, to large, unifying events like the market.

Thank you for such an incredible year together; we can hardly wait for all the opportunities for growth and impact 2026 brings us!
