Avery Kamilla, author of the Vegan Kitchen column in the Maine Sunday Telegram. She has written about how Vegetarianism is not a fad nor a diet, but a social change movement active for more than 2,500 years. It arrived in Maine with European immigrants during the colonial era. Avery Kamilla will regale us with her discovery of a clue from 1838 which unearthed hundreds of years of buried vegetarian history in Maine. This history also includes the significant influence of Helen and Scott Nearing, who increased Maine’s population, changed its demographics and baked vegetarianism into The Good Life.
