Mission Statement

The Lone Star Veggie Chili Championship was founded in early 1989, when a woman by the name of Shirley Wilkes-Johnson imagined a vegetarian world would be a better place, one of peace and harmony, if people just knew about this healthier and gentler option. Their founders all understood, without a doubt, that a vegetarian world would be a better world. It was as if the universe put them together to form a grand plan, where they would share their knowledge and experience with others, making people aware of this healthy, peaceful, and kind lifestyle.

Description

Every year nearly 1000 people come to the Lone Star Veggie Chili Championship to taste chilis prepared by twenty to thirty different teams from the state of Texas--and this year we’re reaching out beyond the Lone Star State. All the chilis are completely vegan, no animal products used in their preparation whatsoever. In addition to the competing chili teams, there are many informational and educational booths, products and services offered by local vendors, door prizes, cooking demos, and live music and entertainment.
