Dear vegetarians, vegan-curious, and everyone interested in a healthier and more compassionate lifestyle!

October 1st marks World Vegetarian Day. And we couldn't be more excited about people coming together to consider making lifestyle changes for the better. In partnership with Catskill Animal Sanctuary, we will guide you through a month-long information campaign about transitioning from a vegetarian lifestyle to a vegan one. 

While it’s not as simple as crossing out a few letters of a word, we’ll show you the benefits of a vegan lifestyle in hopes of getting you started on your journey to a cruelty-free diet!

The first week of the campaign will start with information about the environmental impacts of dairy. Week two will focus on the health benefits of leaving dairy off your plate. Week three will reveal the realities of dairy farming from an animal welfare perspective. In week four we’ll provide additional information on how to transition to a vegan lifestyle. We’ll provide lots of resources and links for delicious, dairy-free alternatives, dairy-free recipes and to help with the transition!

And please consider taking ‘Petunia’s Pledge’ below and enjoy the free live events!

See you throughout October.

Sincerely,
The Dairy-Truth Team
