VEGANISM, BEING VEGAN & A PLANT-BASED DIET
Veganism is a moral issue. It’s about realizing where our food comes from, what it takes to get it to our plate, and how animal food production impacts other creatures and our environment.
Incorporating a plant-based diet on the other hand has many benefits and isn’t just great for health and wellbeing, it’s also more sustainable and kinder to animals.

Be kind. Go vegan.
