About us
Cedar Valley Plant-Based Community (CVPBC) is the in-person plant-based community initiative of Mischievous Monsters, connecting vegans, vegetarians, and plant-curious individuals across Waterloo, Cedar Falls, and surrounding Northeast Iowa communities.
We host restaurant meetups, social gatherings, seasonal outings, and educational experiences designed to make plant-based living more welcoming, accessible, and community-focused. Whether youβve been vegan for years or are simply interested in exploring more plant-based options, youβre welcome here.

Lost Island Themepark Plant-Based Social
Lost Island Themepark, 2600 E Shaulis Rd, Waterloo, IA, USSummer is almost over, so let's make the most of it together!
Join the Cedar Valley Plant-Based Community for a fun day at Lost Island Themepark during the second-to-last weekend the park is open for the 2026 season. Whether you're vegan, plant-curious, or simply looking to meet kind people, everyone is welcome!
We'll meet at the Lost Island Themepark entrance on Sunday, August 30, at 10:30am. Please arrive no later than 10:35am so everyone can enter together and use their admission ticket for the full day until the park closes at 6:30pm.
Our group hangout will wrap up around 3:00pm, but you're welcome to stay at the themepark as long as you'd like. You can also purchase the Island Pass, which lets you enjoy both the themepark and waterpark for a discounted price. It's also the final day the Lost Island Waterpark is open for the summer, making it the perfect opportunity to experience both parks!
Both parks offer vegan-friendly food options, with the themepark featuring the larger selection, so you'll have plenty of choices while spending the day together.
We can't wait to enjoy rides, delicious food, and great conversation with you as we celebrate one of the last weekends of summer!
