This program is designed for families who are thinking about moving towards a more plant-based lifestyle or are already vegetarian/vegan. We’ll talk about healthy eating for all ages, the transition to a healthy vegetarian diet, social situations, and the benefits of a vegetarian diet. Come with questions about raising healthy children on vegetarian diets.

Reed Mangels, PhD, RD is a Nutrition Advisor for the non-profit, educational Vegetarian Resource Group (www.vrg.org) and the nutrition editor and a regular columnist for Vegetarian Journal.)
