Ex-Farmer Goes Vegan: JH Burnett on the Realities of Animal Agriculture


Listen Later

Welcome to another episode of the PBN Podcast.
Todays guest is JH Burnett, a former sheep farmer and artificial inseminator in the dairy industry who, after being horrified by the atrocities witnessed in these industries, turned Vegan. Now, alongside his wife Elle, he is a full-time Vegan author and activist.
Burnett is a well-spoken Vegan educator, coach, author, and storyteller. He has recently launched his memoir 'Ex-Farmer Goes Vegan.' This book chronicles his journey to Veganism, detailing the cruelty he witnessed, the questions raised, the darkness he fought against, and the love and compassion he experienced, culminating in his long-overdue 'escape.'
