Join NJveg (NJveg) for a volunteer work day! We’ll be helping the vegan nonprofit sanctuary Layla’s Rescue Ranch (Layla’s Rescue Ranch) remove some bushes toxic to pigs, and more. We highly recommend bringing a water bottle, bug spray, sunblock, work gloves, work boots, and clothes that can get dirty. A vegan lunch will be provided. If you’d like to donate, you can do so at the sanctuary or online.

Space is limited, children 8+ accompanied by a parent welcome. Please sign up only if you are serious about attending and plan to attend for the full time. If anything comes up and you need to cancel, let us know ASAP, so that we may fill your spot. We’ve had a problem with last minute cancellations – don’t be that person! The address (in Pittsgrove) will be provided privately to volunteers before the event.

We need volunteers for future sanctuary work days. If you’re interested in joining NJveg’s volunteer team, please contact us at [email protected] or 609-557-7077 (text preferred).

The 123rd in NJveg’s (NJveg) hiking/walking + vegan dining series
started with an easy ~3.5 mile walk/hike at Big Brook Park (521 Route
520, Marlboro, NJ 07746) on Sunday June 14. Afterward, we had a
delicious early dinner at the completely vegan Sri Krishna Vegan
Bhojanashala (31 Wooleytown Rd, Morganville, NJ 07751).

A note about the bird photo: We verified with several sources that
this was a mockingbird fledgling learning to fly and should not be
disturbed. The parents would be watching (we could hear them) and
feed it if needed. Since it was at the edge of the trail and in real
danger of being stepped on, we placed some large sticks around it.
When we returned later, this bird had flown! [Trivia question:
identify that reference.]
