WHY A VEGAN PASSOVER SEDER?

The Seder, which means "order" in Hebrew, is both a Jewish service and a meal in which we drink and eat symbolic foods. Everything we put into our bodies during the Seder and what we do not consume is meant to be very intentional and meaningful. In line with the Passover theme of freedom, together with our desire for compassion and nonviolence, the items on the Seder plate and all this food we eat this evening did not require any sentient creatures to be enslaved, confined, tortured or killed. By acknowledging the right of the world's voiceless and powerless animals to live we free ourselves from industries, traditions, and desires that require the suffering of others
