We’re going to throw the word thrilled out there again, because we truly are.

You see, yesterday was a HUGE day for inviting speakers to Vida Vegan Con. We’ve already had a few lined up, but our official invitation went out into the wild world of super talented vegan bloggers yesterday, and the responses and interest are rolling in!

• Lauren of Whoa, Wren
• Lindsay Shay-Nixon of Happy Herbivore
• Joanna Vaught of Yellow Rose Recipes
