More Copies of I Love Animals and Broccoli Coloring Book
Thanks to the generous support of Vegetarian Resource Group members, we have reprinted additional copies of our I Love Animals and Broccoli coloring book. VRG has distributed more than 150,000 copies of this terrific handout for children. They have been used in the children's section of VegFests around the USA, in schools, at camps, at conferences, and in many other places.
Interns Create a Huge My Vegan Plate
VRG interns Amy Dell and Hannah Greene created and painted by hand a very large version of our My Vegan Plate to use at a Baltimore City camp program for low-income kids. The campers were asked to place food containers in the correct category including, Fruits, Grains, Calcium, Vegetables, and Protein. This then led to further discussions about vegan diets and healthy eating.
