Vegan Meatballs at IKEA

Vegan Bodybuilder Ryan Nelson with his girlfriend Jessica at Twin Cities Veg Fest 2014

When vegan meatballs make national headlines, you know the world is changing. Time to celebrate! Veg Week kicks off on Monday and with it comes the opportunity to join our growing movement to help farmed animals.

As part of the Veg Week festivities, please sign up to take the Veg Pledge. Here are three different ways to participate in the pledge:

  • Pledge to go vegetarian for the week of April 20.
  • Pledge to go vegan for the week of April 20.
  • Pledge to share the video What Came Before with three friends or get three friends to take the Veg Pledge.

Need some convincing that you can thrive without meat, dairy, or eggs? Our most recent podcast episode features an interview with Ryan Nelson, a vegan bodybuilder. This local plant-powered athlete demonstrates that thriving on a vegan diet is more than possible. And it’s also inspiring to think not only about the outer strength that comes from lifting weights but also the inner strength that comes from living from one’s values.

For the animals,

Unny Nambudiripad
