Maynard Clark who started the Boston Vegetarian Society in 1986, generously donated most of the educational resources to create the Resource Library at The Peace Abbey. The Greater Boston Vegetarian Resource Library contains a wealth of inspiring, compelling, and fascinating books, periodicals, newsletters, audio and video tapes. A myriad of diverse and tantalizing cookbooks abound, with a copy machine available to sample recipes. Relevent messages adorn t-shirts, bumper stickers, mugs, and totebags which are displayed for viewing, and possible purchase. The Library also plans to offer vegetarian cooking classes.
Membership is currently free of charge, but donations are welcome and greatly appreciated.
Donations will be used to expand the Library and hire paid staff. We need volunteers to catalog resources, staff the library, offer classes, assist at special events and other media resources. A Vegetarian diet is better for the animals, the environment, and your health. Protect and restore billions of tons of soil destroyed for feed crops. Help save vast amounts of precious water used in the production of meat.
