The Meat Free Zone (MFZ)
http://www.all-creatures.org/mfz/
The Meat Free Zone (MFZ) campaign is intended to make
the MeatFreeZone logo as recognizable a symbol as the "Smoke Free Zone."
The idea was originally conceived when The WARM Store in Woodstock, NY,
was in operation throughout the '90's (Woodstock Animal Rights
Movement).
The store was truly a meat free zone as it was the first
cruelty-free, Vegan, socially conscious animal rights store in the
United States. Now that the Vegan and Vegetarian movements have been
growing so rapidly, more and more people are showing concern about the
food in their diet and their overall health and nutrition.
Many people are giving up eating fish, chicken, beef,
pork (pigs ), dairy (milk, cheese, yogurt, ice cream) and eggs.
Headlines of Mad Cow disease, E-coli and salmonella are in the news with
greater frequency. Vegan and vegetarian recipe cookbooks are standard
now in all bookstores and many restaurants have added Vegan and
Vegetarian options to their menus.
We hope you will help us with the Meat Free Zone
campaign by putting the signs up in your homes and workplaces and by
spreading them to all the vegetarian and vegan restaurants that you know
and frequent. And someday we will have true "meat free zones" in
establishments that serve meat.
