Walk for Farm Animals a Success!



Today, George, Walter, and I walked in Ithaca's Walk for Farm Animals. By all accounts, it was a success. The weather was cool with a perfect, sunny sky. We had over 40 participants, up from around 20 last year. Lots of car drivers who passed our flock honked in support of our efforts. Plus, we had a great time.

Many Farm Sanctuary staff were in attendance, including the indomitable and sweet Michelle and the articulate and inspiring Matt. A large contingent of IC students from the Ithaca College Vegetarian Community were also there, bringing great energy and enthusiasm to the event.

Thank you all who sponsored me in the Walk. This is an important fundraiser for the Farm, and funds go to their critical work educating, rescuing, and advocating for farm animals. If you did not get a chance to submit your donation, never fear. My fundraising site will be live for another month...visit firstgiving to show your support!

Mean People Wear Fur

After writing my post on Zappos yesterday, I was informed that they sell fur in their online store. How disappointing! I like the shop, but I think I will avoid purchasing from them until they pledge to be fur free.
