– I’m new to this group but a long-term (30+ years)
vegetarian and recent vegan. I…homeschool a 6th grade, vegetarian daughter who
is an aspiring animal rights activist. Part of the reason we homeschool is so
that we can focus on progressive and sustainable topics, for self-directed,
liberal arts inspired education. We have gotten to know a few more vegetarian
and vegan families who homeschool in Baltimore. I wonder if there are any more
vegetarians /vegans out there who are
homeschooling. I am interested in developing a research /writing group for
homeschooling middle and high school students. We belong to a Baltimore area
homeschool co-op (BRANCH) that holds classes on Fridays and has use of a log
cabin space at a local nature center. Whether it’s a “virtual”
discussion group, or a local group that meets monthly or even weekly, I think
that this would be a wonderful network to build. The students could strengthen
their research and writing skills while following their interests in
sustainability and animal rights.
-Shared an article on
vegan lunch options for kids written by a VRG intern.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/VRGparentsandkids/ is intended to be a group that offers support for
families raising children on vegan diets and for vegan kids. We envision it as
a place to get advice about a wide-variety of topics: pregnancy, birthday
parties, school lunches, Halloween, non-leather apparel, cruelty-free products,
summer camps, and more. Please use it as a place to share your wisdom, seek
advice, or just find a sympathetic ear. The goal is to offer support.
Consequently, any profane, defamatory, offensive,
or violent language will be removed. Feel free to disagree, but do so
respectfully. Hateful or discriminatory comments regarding race, ethnicity,
religion, gender, disability, sexual orientation, or political beliefs will not

Please share this information
with any veggie families that you know! Thanks.
When most people think of pancakes in the USA, they visualize the pancakes served at breakfast time often with syrup on top. Pancakes, however, can be created as a savory item. In fact, pancakes are often a savory dinner item in other countries.
In her Vegetarian Journal article, Debra Daniels-Zeller offers recipes for Asian Noodle Pancakes with Sweet and Sour Sauce; Tomato-Garlic Chickpea Pancakes with a Salsa Spread; Millet-Vegetable Pancakes with Wild Mushroom Sauce; Carrot-Risotto Cakes with Quick Marinara Sauce; Mushroom-Sage Potato Pancakes; Sun-dried Tomato Polenta Cakes; and Scottish Oat Cakes.

For many years, The Vegetarian Resource Group has worked
with teenage interns both in our office and long-distance. All these veggie
teenagers have created articles for our extensive Teen FAQ section on topics
such as activism, athletes, forming a veggie group at school, dealing with
family and friends that are not veggie, school food issues, and more. Find this
teen FAQ section here: https://www.vrg.org/teen/
