    I can relate to a desire for self reliance, communion with nature, and transcendence over the quotidian. I am grateful to have found many ways to achieve all of these without taking lives. We live in a time and place where we do not need to kill someone's mother or child to thrive, to lead rich, meaningful lives. I find it easier, in fact, to learn self-reliance through gardening and supporting coops and community markets; to commune with nature without committing violence in it; and to transcend the quotidian through living life with deep consciousness about the damage I cause.

    Hi guys! SO GLAD you're highlighting cruelty-free, environmentally-responsible food in chronogram! The Garden Cafe has indeed transformed considerably, and I hope you'll update the article. It's a MAGICAL place. Also, Lagusta's Commissary in New Paltz is absolutely stellar and absolutely vegan and deserves to be recognized here. Croissants, mac n cheese, pour-over coffee, mashed potatoes and gravy, homemade ice cream, and the best chocolate you've ever tasted..let's give credit where credit is due! .
