Camberville Dog Treats

These local, small-farm and vegan (of course!) dog treats might be just the thing for your furry companions. Camberville Dog Treats are made with only three ingredients, with flavors based on locally available certified organic produce.

Rescue dog Maeve had prolonged tummy complications as a puppy and still has a sensitive stomach. Wanting to give her the highest quality and minimal ingredient snack, the fine folks at ​Camberville Dog Treats started baking their own. They love supporting local farms and using the best ingredients possible. They bake their treats at a low temperature in small batches to maintain quality and taste. The process makes them easier to digest and increases the amount of nutrients absorbed. If you’d like to get your hands on some super fresh and delicious treats with no chemicals, allergens or fillers for your pups, here’s a great deal: 25% off online purchases at www.cambervilledogtreats.com with code albanyvegfest from Oct 4-11.

Catskill Animal Sanctuary

Catskill Animal Sanctuary is a 150-acre refuge in New York’s Hudson Valley for 11 species of farmed animals rescued from cruelty, neglect and abandonment. Over the years, thousands have come to this place of profound peace. They continue to come — sometimes one needy soul, sometimes a flock of 100 or more at a time. It is our privilege to help each and every rescued animal understand what love feels like. While the sanctuary is closed to visitors at this time because of the COVID-19 pandemic, you can use discount code VEGFEST20 to receive 25% off all Sanctuary merch AND a FREE online vegan cooking class!
