Eating vegan effectively and locally

It is possible in most climates and bioregions to maximize the amount of both vegan foods and local, sustainable foods in a diet… even if you cannot, yourself, build your home and lifestyle around vegan permaculture for a range of valid reasons. Soon, we will offer more info about the following topics:

Preserving, freezing, and canning food for off-season

Suburban and urban foraging

Scavenging and dumpster-diving

Growing your own vegetables, fruits, and legumes in your yard, house,  and/or small community gardens

CSAs

Supporting local, sustainable farms and local stores that sell their products

Letting yourself off the hook for not being perfect

Stuff about how important it is not to be jugdemental and self-righteous re: people who eat meat, in the name of radical solidarity and a generally calm society.
