Why Veg?

Eating MORE VEG MORE OFTEN is better for the planet, our health and that of animals that share our earth, plus it’s delicious!

The Macedon Ranges, in Central Victoria is a cornucopia of options for people who choose to eat more veg. There is an accredited farmers’ market every week across the shire, cafes and restaurants that offer an increasing choice of plant-based meals, and of course with our rich soils and high rainfall, growing your own is easy!

Join the veg community 

Join a local community focused on eating more veg, more often - coordinated by Veg Action.

Veg Action celebrates local, seasonal plant-based eating. It is a voluntary group of veg-lovers that operates as an action group of the Macedon Ranges Sustainability Group.

Members love delicious food (especially home grown), great company and knowing that we are improving our health and that of the planet with every delicious bite!
