About Guest Contributor, Linden Mackey

Linden Mackey is a relatively new convert to veganism, February 4th marking one year since making this momentous decision. She views veganism as a spiritual as well as an ethical discipline, impacting the world one bite at a time. She is also looking forward to finding more ways to advocate for animals, particularly at the (relatively) nearby Farm Sanctuary. Always an avid cook, Linden is enjoying the revitalized creativity in discovering the universe of fantastically delicious vegan dishes – key to converting her husband and two sons and fueling her one-day dream of being involved with a vegan-only restaurant.

Fidel Antonio gets the essence of it, a truth that transcends status, nationality, race or species – animals have the right to life, just like us. And we do not need to eat them to live and thrive.
