Vegetarian Parenting Support

Post written by VegBlogger. Follow me on Twitter.

Looking for a way to connect with the parents of other vegetarian kids? One way I have been doing that is through the Vegetarian Resource Group's online vrgparents Yahoo group. The group is free and has been a great source for bouncing ideas off other parents, discussing vegetarian/vegan kid-related issues, asking questions, getting answers, and just feeling a part of a community of vegetarian parents that is probably larger than just where you live.

If you haven't checked out the VRG site yet you should! There you will find a lot of useful information and tools, such as:

An online restaurant guide.
Information on raising vegetarian kids and teens.
An online vegetarian game.
College scholarships to graduating students who have promoted vegetarianism.
Guides and handouts on vegetarianism.
Vegetarian poll information.
Lots more!

Check out their site, become a member of the parenting group, as well as of the Vegetarian Resource Group itself, and be a part of this growing community!

Colleen Patrick-Goudreau Adds Videos

Post written by VegBlogger. Follow me on Twitter.

If you are not familiar with the work of Colleen Patrick-Goudreau of Compassionate Cooks you should be! While she has some excellent cookbooks that are a part of my collection, she also has an interesting vegan podcast that you can access from her site. She also offers vegan cooking and baking classes to boot (too bad I'm not in her neck of the woods)!

Just when you think she has already touched all bases, she has now come out with some interesting videos on animal rights and veganism. They are short, interesting, thought-provoking and have a great informative message. Take the time to watch, think and learn about these issues, as well as pass them on to others.

Colleen is a positive force in the vegetarian/vegan movement and I for one am thankful for her work and all she has done to promote veganism in such a professional, non-demeaning and non-threatening manner. Kudos!
