On Friday, January 31, 2025, as part of the “Let’s Dismantle Ageism” campaign, Startagers hosted the interactive workshop:
“Startagers Go Veganuary!”
Together with 30 residents from the Municipality of Ellinikon – Argyroupolis, and in collaboration with the non-profit organization Vegan Life NGO, we explored the benefits of plant-based nutrition through a fun, hands-on experience.
Participants shared recipes, learned from nutritionist Anastasia Zotalis about the principles of the Mediterranean and plant-based diet, played Kahoot games to uncover food-related myths and truths, and—wearing gloves and aprons—prepared delicious plant-based snacks!
With the stories and recipes gathered during the workshop, Startagers will create a digital recipe book—a blend of flavors and memories rooted in our shared culture—which will be gifted to all participants along with a certificate of participation.
The day concluded with the traditional cutting of the Startagers New Year’s cake at our new offices in Kallithea, celebrating a year ahead where age is never a barrier to dreams, but a stepping stone to new experiences.
