Guided by sustainable food principles, we promoted plant-based, seasonal, local, and organic eating. Locally, we grew vegetables, herbs, and Comfrey, ran workshops, shared gardens, and founded the Mile of Potatoes and supported The Real Junk Food Project Brighton. Nationally we supported Meat Free Monday, and National Vegetarian Week. Globally, we promoted World Vegetarian and Vegan Days.
