NJveg (@vegnj) had a volunteer work day combined w NJveg (@vegnj) had a volunteer work day combined with an ~6 mile hike in Newfield on Saturday December 13!  We helped Unexpected Wildlife Refuge (@unexpected_wildlife_refuge), a vegan-run non-profit safe place for wild animals and plants consisting of almost 800 acres.  The Refuge has approximately 10 miles of trails to hike.  It’s hunting season, so we patrolled the perimeter trails, ensuring there were no encroaching hunters, and performed some light trail maintenance.  If you’d like to donate, you can do so online. 📸 Steve W, Dave, and Steve J

The 112th in NJveg’s hiking/walking + vegan dining The 112th in NJveg’s hiking/walking + vegan dining series will start at Turkey Swamp Park (brochure, trail info). We’ll meet at the Oak Point parking area, north of the lake.
Afterward, we’ll head to the Vegan in NJ Monthly Market (at American Legion Post 346, 21 Gully Rd, Neptune Township, NJ 07753) for dining and shopping.

If there’s a lot of rain prior, we may move the hike to Shark River Park (as Turkey Swamp Park can be quite wet). If there’s rain forecast on Sunday, we’ll head to the market at noon with the hike rain date TBD.  We’ll update here accordingly.
