Welcome to Vegetarians HQ

Vegetarian resources on Squidoo

Vegetarians HQ is our Squidoo group for lenses relating to vegetarian and vegan food, the vegetarian lifesyle, shopping, recipes, and other information.

My entire family are vegetarians and I am passionate about vegetarian living, the health benefits, the benefits to the planet, and the idea of doing no harm, by not eating animals, or consuming animal products.

I am in the process of updating this group due to the changes that Squidoo made to the groups pages.  Please keep checking back to see what's new.

If you have a vegetarian lens that you think would be suitable for this group, I invite you to suggest it below.

About Julianne 

Lensmaster genglo has been a member since October 26 2005, has rated 1,866 lenses, favorited 66, and has created 96 lenses from scratch. Julianne Gentile donates their royalties to Ferrets Unlimited Ferret Shelter. This member's top-ranked page is "Sweet Potato Crisp". See all my lenses

Please help the ferrets! 

I have been a volunteer for Ferrets Unlimited for many years and it is a much needed rescue service for the many ferrets that are abused, neglected, or dumped on the street. Ferrets Unlimited provides healthcare, rehabilitation, foster care, and finds permanent homes for these often misunderstood pets.

Ferrets Unlimited is a non-profit, no kill ferret shelter in Cleveland, Ohio.

We at Squidoo passionately believe in creating new ways to support good causes online. By making a donation to Ferrets Unlimited Ferret Shelter from this page, you are sending money directly to that organization, in whatever amount you want. We don't touch it. We don't even see it. The author of this page doesn't either. And if you made it this far, thanks for caring.
