Veganuary

Make it a year of positive change! Veganuary is underway, and it’s not too late to join.  If you’ve been considering trying a vegan lifestyle permanently, or just want to commit to a month in order to reduce your carbon footprint, now is a great time!  It’s not nearly as difficult as you may think, and you will feel fantastic knowing the good you are doing for yourself and the planet.  Plus I have great resources to help you get started.
