Meet The Japanese Moms Challenging The Status Quo, And Rescuing Cows On The Side

Vegmama Salon, founded by Yumi Koshigai Powell, is a vegan group in Japan that supports mothers interested in transitioning to a plant-based lifestyle while raising their children. The group offers cooking lessons, yoga sessions, and Q&A meetings to create a safe and encouraging space for Japanese moms looking to improve their food choices and health. Additionally, Vegmama Salon recently launched the Potekoro Project, a cow rescue initiative that aims to provide a sanctuary for cows in need.

Through the Potekoro Project, Yumi collaborated with Ms. Tani of Moo Mow Garden to rescue cows and provide them with a safe and caring environment. This initiative showcases the transformative power of veganism and the importance of animal welfare while challenging the traditional practices in Japan's dairy industry. By supporting initiatives like Vegmama Salon and The Potekoro Project, individuals can contribute to creating a more just world for all animals.
