Plants for Peace

Plants for Peace is a non-profit, non-sectarian educational organization that is open to all. Plants for Peace meets three times a semester, with the events always scheduled on Sundays. The programs are always free and open to the public. Meetings offer a share-a-dish vegan potluck followed by a lecture, workshop, film screening, or forum related to our educational mission. Plants for Peace strives to provide: *educational resources for informing the public about the advantages of a vegan diet and choices; *nutritional information, including recipes, that will support and facilitate the adoption and healthful enjoyment of a vegan diet; *insight into the impact of animal-centered diets on human health, on the integrity of our environment, on world hunger, and on cruelty needlessly inflicted on billions of living, feeling, creatures every year; *an opportunity for interested but not-yet-vegan/vegetarians to learn first-hand about the delights of good vegan cooking and to get to know and interact with experienced vegans/vegetarians; *and an opportunity for enriched understanding, mutual support, and shared fellowship for practicing vegans/vegetarians by providing opportunities for community outreach and community service in the interest of good health, environmental protection, and compassionate living.
