Is a vegan diet healthy for kids?

Whether you’re raising plant-based babies or just curious about the pros and cons of feeding your children a meat-free menu, an upcoming talk will provide plenty of food for thought.

When Glauce Lucas became vegan in Brazil back in 1997, she knew how important her decision was for the animals. However, when her son Enrico was born in 2012, Glauce realised that although her decision to raise him vegan was very obvious, many families had doubts and questions about her choices.

Glauce decided to create a Vegan Families page dedicated to parents raising vegan children on her website All About Vegan Food, where she shares recipes, tips and advice.

Glauce has spoken at several international vegan gatherings on the subject of raising a vegan family and you can catch her on Leeside at Cork Vegfest, the biggest and best Irish vegan event of 2018, on May 12th.

In her talk ‘Raising Vegan Children: We’re Doing It Right’, Glauce will share her journey as a vegan parent, chatting about the challenges as well as the joys.

Yay Cork is proud media partner of Cork VegFest 2018. It all happens on Saturday, May 12th, 2018, 10am – 6pm. Book your tickets here.
