For my Tuesday posts for Vegan Mofo I wanted to take a look at a couple of blogs that I have read for a number of years and that made a big difference in my becoming interested in veganism. Although many blogs had an influence on me, most of the ones I started reading 6 or so years ago are no longer around.
Today’s feature is Get Sconed!, which may be the first vegan blog I stumbled upon, lo so many years ago. Straight outta Portland, OR, Jess has blogged for years about vegan food trends and the Portland vegan scene. Although she wouldn’t brag about it she is quite the activist in the area, working on such projects as Vegan Iron Chef and Vida Vegan Con. I have also been lucky enough to meet her in person and she exemplifies what I had in mind when I started Vegans on the Move. She works at promoting veganism in a fun and accessible way and works to promote community.
Follow her blog and twitter account to keep up with what’s what in the vegan world and maybe an occasional cat picture in there too. You can’t go wrong.
I’m a card carrying member of the Jess Appreciation Society. She’s the best.
Where’s my card?!?! <3
She’s pretty cool.
