Handmade vegan cheese anyone? We’ve been wanting to post about @Garfield's Vegan Food Company for some time. This local company was set up by Donna Garfield after a career in food/nutrition and two years spent cooking with local produce in Provence just outside Avignon, France.
.
Donna is passionate about animal welfare and the environment, with a unique set of skills to produce the best-tasting products. Favorites include her vegan “not-brie” and “blue” cheese. There is also a delightful vegan vinaigrette. It’s no surprise that Garfields was a finalist in the Kent Life Food & Drink Awards 2020.
.
Donna’s products have been in hot supply over the festive period and may now be sold out for pre-Christmas orders. Check their website www.garfieldsveganfood.com for more details. Items may also be for sale in-store at Canterbury Wholefoods and Macknade Food Hall, Faversham

TODAY IS WORLD VEGAN DAY!
If you care about the environment, animal welfare and the future of our planet then you should go VEGAN!
"There are estimated to be 75,300,000 vegans in the world so you won't be alone. Veganism was once dismissed as just another fad but with plant based diets surging in popularity, 51% of the population now say they are happy to see vegan food in the shops and restaurants which is a major change in public opinion.
Veganism is no longer a ridiculous concept; it's associated with numerous health benefits, tapping into the eco-conscious state of the world and is a progressive movement towards a greener way of life. The Vegan Society released research revealing that 56% of adults in the UK practice vegan buying behaviors, 19% have cut down on buying meat and are checking cosmetics and toiletries for animal testing, and 13% of us are actively choosing meat free or dairy free meals when eating out.
If you want a better future for your children, our animals, our environment and ultimately our world, take the plunge and GO VEGAN!

Twenty million Brits—almost 40 percent of meat-eaters—say they are in the process of reducing their meat consumption. While the number of Brits who have eaten meat-free foods increased to 65 percent in 2019, according to Mintel.
Mintel also says that meat-free sales grew by 40 percent between 2014 and 2019. Consumers hope to save money, be healthier, and help the environment by ditching meat. And animal rights and ethics are also a concern for many of those making changes.
