To celebrate World Vegan Day 2011, the Invercargill Vegan Society (INVSOC) planted a memorial tree - 67 years since Donald Watson coined the term "vegan", and the first Vegan Society were founded in 1944.
Our greatest thanks to Invercargill Parks and Reserves for helping us remember this great day :-) The tree chosen is a Kauri ("cow-reee"), a New Zealand native which grows to be very, very big!
From all the Vegans in Invercargill, New Zealand - Happy World Vegan Day! :-)
Also, try our World Vegan Day episode :-)
