Silent auction - day of event

I have decided to hold a silent auction the day of the event instead of a raffle draw! All proceeds will of course be going to Farm Sanctuary, and will also got towards costs associated to the event.

There will be a special table set-up with all the prizes on display, and sheets where you can write your name and your bid. If you win a bid, you will be going home with the prize, so make sure you bring cash with you :)

Here is a list of some of the things that will be auctioned off:
  • Unlimited monthly yoga passes (Funky Door Yoga, Yoga Tree)
  • Gift certificates to several restaurants
  • Cookbooks (by Sarah Kramer, Robin Robertson)
  • Purse from Kitty Gallery
  • Nu-tru products
  • Daily Acts tour passes
  • Belts from Truth
  • Lush gift basket
  • Soaps from Vegan Soap Kitchen
and much much more!!!

Let me know if you have any questions
