It's simple! Everyone can enter! Everyone can have a chance to win!
Happy #veganwednesday everyone! Welcome to WEEK 4! (Can you believe it's been a month already?)
If you're new here and haven't heard of our #veganwednesday challenge yet well then come on in, we're happy to have you here! There have been a few tweaks along the way so please read the rules when entering (don't worry- it's all easy and fun!)
Creating this contest for me, is a huge piece of my heart. I love food, healing and sharing inspiration and adapting my diet truly changed my life! It's wonderful to have you here, submitting pieces of your heart to me and sharing this with the world! I love it and am so happy I started this and am hoping it only continues to grow <3
My intent is to bring awareness, conversation and relationship over the concept of veganism... whether or not you are vegan does not matter! You can enter anyway!
Thank you to everyone for their wonderfully vegan entries! You all are amazing and I just love going through them all, connecting with you and spreading this more and more every week!
How Winning Works:
I improved my winning system by using 
's method of 50% of post payout going to 1st place, and 12.5% to a second place and third place each!
Remember, if you don't put your link on this post, I may not find it! Also, another reminder to please mention this contest in your post... I am wanting other vegans/plant-based/foodies/interested Steemians to be able to find where we have our fun!

Rules of the game:
I am notchyourmotha! I'm not here to tell you what or what not to eat but my contest, my rules so your entry must be vegan/plant-based ie: nothing can come from an animal!
As my loving and open rules state- you, yourself do not need to be vegan to enter this contest but your post does have to be! That means if it's a recipe please be sure to remember that animal products are not vegan! If you need help, feel free to comment and ask me!
What day can I enter?
Originally I had meant for this to be a Wednesday only challenge however, I've extended it so that you can enter whatever day you want (much easier for you to enter that way!), but I will release the winners for the week on Wednesdays so the cutoff for the week will be Monday at 12UTC to give me time to go through them all. If you submit after that time, don't worry! I will consider your entry for the following week!
What's love got to do with it?
Please mention this contest in your post! I am trying to get a friendly community together here with similar interests so the more people who can find us, the more we can grow, the more we can learn, the more we can love! If you meet someone vegan-licious or plant-based-tastic, invite them to join in! The more the veggier!
How to participate:
🍇🍈🍉🍊🍋🍌🍍🍎
- Post what vegan means to you! This could be anything from vegan approved recipes (no animal products) to poems, to reviews... basically I am looking for vegan related content at your discretion (must be animal friendly!)
- Tag it within #veganwednesday (using your first tag will help me find it!) and I will go through them every week, choosing a winner and announcing them each week!
- If you do not tag it in #veganwednesday, sadly it can't count
(I will have guest judges help me from time to time as well as we grow!) - Post your entry on each week's update (this post will serve as this week's, so post your submissions here!)
- I will create a post announcing the winner each week along with any deserved mentions as to help foster a strong community bond for those of us who are trying to share our messages, love and inspiration with the world!
- Only positive posts will be considered. This isn't a war for animal rights or a call out to tell people how to live! It's a loving, caring, sharing invitation to get to know each other and support our community!
- Your content will be evaluated on how much heart you show! Pull on my heart strings and you got yourself a prize! <3
WINNER, WINNER (No Chicken Dinner!)
WEEK 4:
1st Prize: $14.52 SBD
Alkaline VS Acidic
This post is a great, loving example of not telling people what to eat or what to do (that is not the #veganwednesday way!) instead it's from a personal health perspective (my favourite!) detailing positive effects of giving up meat! Awesome article 
<3

Raw, Vegan Chocolate Caramel Fudge
We had so many cupcakes this week that I was dreaming constantly of having some in my life however, 
3rd Prize: $3.62 SBD

Thank you to everyone who submitted an entry this week!
This contest is a way to bring the vegan/plant-based community together and show others what is possible through inspiration! You are all filling my heart up every week! Thank you for helping me share this knowledge and inspiration!
If you or anyone you know would like to sponsor a weekly prize, give me a shout over in Discord or Steemit.chat, the vegan community would be mighty grateful to have some more incentive to reward our lovely authors for their time!
I encourage you all to connect with each other if you feel drawn to- let's make this group a loving, supportive, engaging community to call home!

A note from 
I have a compelling urge to inspire and assist anyone who would like to improve their health!
I would love for you to experience the same incredible health benefits I have received from changing what I put into my body.
I hope this challenge inspires you to consider new options in your diets and serves to help us connect to each other! Please engage with me here in the comments, on steemit.chat or in Discord! I am so excited to launch this initiative and can't wait to meet new friends and see your posts!
XO,
