Introduction

Hi, i'm Melissa and after going back and forth as a vegetarian for a few years, I made the decision to go vegan 2 years ago and never looked back... best choice I could have made..looking forward to meeting other like-minded people in the burbs...

Are you currently a vegetarian/vegan?

yes, vegan

How long have you been interested in the veg lifestyle?

went back and forth with the idea over the last 10 years. was vegetarian for about 1 1/2 yrs during that time. found myself naturally going that way about 2 years ago and made the conscious choice to go vegan- it's been an amazing journey...

What types of activities are you interested in doing with this group?

i love potlucks but also want to get us out and about more. would love to incorporate cooking demos and bring in some speakers!!
