Hi Alyssa! Thank you for joining our group! Would you like to share where abouts your community is?
Hi! I live in Pennsylvania!
I have family there. It’s a beautiful area in a different way to Florida. I miss the cold weather sometimes!
Have you started a project of your own or would you like to share a topic that you’re interested in taking part in?
I have not started a project of my own wet. A topic I would be interested in taking part in is something to do with veganism.

Those are both awesome topics and causes of interest. I’d love to form a project around veganism. I live in an ‘almost vegan’ household and we are heading more and more to being full vegans. Maybe you could share some of your favorite recipes with me/us! I think this could be a fun project to take part in!
That is amazing! Some of my favorite vegan foods are Violife cheeses and JUST vegan egg! Earth balance and Tofuti also have great foods!

Some companies use sustainable palm oil that supposedly isn’t grown in a place where rainforests were cut down, but often the “sustainable” palm oil actually has some sustainable palm oil and some palm oil that isn’t sustainable. RSPO is one label that is the partly sustainable palm oil. CSPO is a more…[Read more]
Thank you so much,Olivia! This was very helpful 🙂
Of course!!
A similar oil would be coconut oil. However, palm oil is actually a pretty worthwhile and high-yield plant. That means it can produce a lot without needing much care, space or nutrient-rich soil. Unfortunately, it is what happens before these trees are planted (the deforestation) and what happens on the plantations (wildlife being killed/illegally…[Read more]

Palm Oil Problems 2nd challenge! :
Cook/bake/make a homemade treat to replace store bought foods that have palm oil! For example Pop Tarts have palm oil so you could look up how to make homemade Pop Tarts, or if you wanted to do something more simple you could just make anything without palm oil and not copy a product from the store! If you do the…[Read more]
