We never outreach at Cesar Chavez's fair in SF

December 30, 2003

It would be nice to introduce vegetarian foods to the Hispanic/non-

Hispanic community. I was there last there, Safeway was one of their

biggest sponsors. Would anyone be interested in doing something at

this fair? All I know the fair last year was held at the Park at

City Hall. Cesar's birthdate is March 31, 1927.
