It is a very exciting time at JVS with the recent addition of Dan Jacobs as a new Trustee, record numbers at our 49th AGM and our brand new edible garden taking shape.
Amid a recent ban on kosher and halal slaughter in Denmark, we have a fascinating article entitled, ‘A Jewish Vegetarian Response to Efforts to Ban Shechita’ by Professor Richard Schwartz.
See page 36 for details of our diverse array of upcoming events, including the launch of our Film Club, a group trip to an animal sanctuary in Kent, and the chance to transform humble fruit and veg from our edible garden in to a sumptuous dinner at our Summer Salad Masterclass. We are very much looking forward to returning to Gefiltefest: The London Jewish Food Festival in mid-June with a stall full of treats as well as information on the many benefits of moving towards a vegetarian diet.
In this issue’s ‘JVS Meets…’ column, we talk to Demuths Vegetarian Cookery School in Bath. Cookery Corner is full of beautifully fresh and vibrant offerings from Claudia Roden, Rachel Demuth, Emily von Euw and Ori Shavit, who features in the latest “My Life as a Vegetarian” interview.
Wishing readers a lovely summer.
We hope you enjoy the magazine and please get in touch if you’d like to contribute an article or place an advert in the Autumn issue, which comes out on 1 September 2014.
