"Being focused on purity does not help the animals."

I am lucky enough to be in a community that is very vegan friendly. The Triangle owes the IG account Bull City Vegan and the woman behind this account, Leeanne Siart, a huge thank you for making our community great. I knew I had to have her on the podcast to find out why she does what she does.

Bull City Vegan which was formed 12 years ago to promote vegan dining options in Durham NC including with the Bull City Vegan Challenge that challenged local chefs to add vegan options to their menus and diners voted on the best.

Leeanne has a Master of Science degree in Conservation Biology with over 25 years of experience working with various environmental and animal advocacy organizations including conservation research on turtles, fighting old-growth logging in Oregon, and patrolling for illegal fishing in the Galapagos Islands with Sea Shepherd. Since 2006 she has been working for PETA supporting animal liberation campaigns.
