I'm pretty excited to meet other vegans that might be living in the state! I know of a few places in Birmingham in terms of restaurants and stores, but I would love to learn about good farmer's markets and other places in other cities and towns in central Alabama and the Birmingham metro area. I look forward to communicating with you and learning about how to understand the rather un-vegan-friendly Alabama maybe in a new way.

I live in B'ham and just moved here last summer. I have been vegan for 3+ years. I would be interested in restaurants and stores you'd recommend, being new here. I lived in Montgomery, where there is a great farmer's market. Between here and there on I65 is my favorite fruit/vegetable stand, Durbin Farms. I sometimes even eat their ice cream, which is the best ever. Otherwise I eat Sorbet if I feel like something cold for a snack.
My wife and I are not gourmet eaters nor cooks - we can survive without anything too fancy. I am more "strict" than my wife about this. |

Just found this website and LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! "Gradual Vegetarian" in Mobile, AL here. Looking forward to meeting new like minded folks here. I am changing my lifestyle for health reasons more than anything else. i am Type 2 Diabetic and need to lose approx 40 lbs and then hopefully I will be able to get of the oral meds.
I am trying to cultivate my tastes for more leafy greens- so far I am OD-ing on baby spinich. I use it in place of lettice when I eat sandwiches or salads. I guess that is enough for now.
