Letters to Editors
In Honor of The Vegetarian Resource Group's Co-Directors
February 6, 2023, marked 40 years that I have been a vegetarian. I had attended a tofu cooking/book-selling event organized by Charles and Debra in downtown Baltimore. Their efforts, and the great book I bought from them, Laurel's Kitchen, led to my giving up my carnivorous diet. I am forever grateful to those two fantastic people for the work they did then and all the 40 years since that they've poured their efforts into making this a better, healthier, kinder world!

Journals Distributed at Alabama Health Fair
Greetings. Last week I received the box of goodies for the Selma, Alabama, health fair. Oh, joy! Thank you so much. The health fair was a great success. Only a few Vegan Journals remained, and participants were eager to collect the other information you sent. This will be a great help in transitioning to a plant-based diet. I am hopeful that it will become a part of a better, healthier lifestyle change. Thank you so much for the resources.

There was a great turn out! Had several very interesting conversations. A surprising number of elderly people that are now in retirement communities were there. They wanted to share information with other residents about adopting a vegan diet. Many are becoming plant-based as they become older.
