Two ethical vegans who have a health message too: We open with Amie Hamlin of New York Coalition for Healthy School Food and in our second segment, we learn about the work of Vegan Outreach and the latest in nutritional research. Show notes.

In 2013, history was made when PS244, a public school in Flushing Queens, NY shifted their school lunch program to fully vegetarian. With the help of today’s guest, Amie Hamlin and her organization, the Coalition for Healthy School Food (CHSF), PS244 continues to be a landmark accomplishment in the world of health and education. Schools and parents all over the country are using PS244’s story to help enact change in their local community. CHFS’s goal is to change the way schools feed kids by introducing plant-based foods and nutrition education in schools to educate the whole school community. It is federally mandated that all schools must have wellness policies and must have nutrition education goals but like so many, health can be a confusing and daunting subject matter. Many schools don’t have the manpower or time to research and create effective, sustainable programs. This is where CHSF can be of great service to schools. Available resources such as Wellness Wakeup Call, Nutrition Education Posters, Teachers and Nurses Make a Difference Handouts and a Hotline open to anyone looking to inspire change in their school district. CHSF makes it easy for schools to make big change and meet federal guidelines for a little bit of money. But this interview isn’t just about schools and it’s not just for parents. This podcast is for anyone looking to bring more health into their life. Amie is a wealth of information when it comes to plant-based nutrition and living a vegan lifestyle. We discuss the uprising of veganic farming, the power of big business, especially the dairy industry and the politics of food. She shares her compelling story of how she became plant-based and why it took 10 more years before she gave up dairy. Amie is so passionate about educating others on the big changes that we can make by taking very small steps. Amie shares generously throughout the podcast and from the time we spent with her in Ithaca, it’s just clear that she is living her purpose to serve and educate everyone who inquires. We are so grateful to have met such an inspired person who is living what she teaches. Amie is walking the walk and there is so much to learn from her.

I recently republished an August 2007 interview with Amie Hamlin, Executive Director of The New York Coalition for Healthy School Food. In that conversation, we covered:

Today's podcast is the first half of a double-header with Amie Hamlin, founder and executive director of the New York Coalition for Healthy School Food.

Today on the show I visit New York's PS244 – The Active Learning Elementary School — in Flushing, Queens to chat with science teacher and Director of the school's Wellness and Nutrition Program Christian Ledesma, as well as PS244's Principal Bob Groff to find out how PS244 became the first public school in the United States to institute a vegetarian school lunch.But what I pleasantly discovered went well beyond a simple cafeteria upgrade. PS244's revolutionary school lunch program is just the latest manifestation of a school founded on principals of wellness. It's fair to say that the very fibre of PS244's DNA is the promotion of holistic health for kids premised on the advancement of not just the mind, but that of the childrens' bodies & character.And it shows. I saw food being grown in hanging gardens along the playground fences. Kindergartners making their own granola bars and tasting blackberries in after-school programs. Even a tower garden in the school library. And that's just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the day-to-day goings on at this special institute.What PS244 has accomplished — seemingly impossible within the confines of a very large & bureaucratic urban school district — is beyond inspiring. And yet obviously doable when passion aligns with faith and hard work. The bar is set. And my hope is that this school's example will empower other teachers, administrators, principals, parents and students to take greater initiative in their own schools and districts and aspire for positive change.Special thanks to Amie Hamlin, Executive Director of the New York Coalition for Healthy School Food. It was her and this organization, working tirelessly for several years in alliance with the New York Department of Education, that made the impossible real. My desire was to include Amie in this interview, but she was not in NYC on the day of my visit, so my plan is to interview her for a future podcast episode.

Vegcast 96 is totally devoted to the CD Healthy Food for Thought: Good Enough to Eat, which benefits the NY Coalition for Healthy School Food and has been nominated for a Grammy Award. At the end of January a CD release party was held at the studio of Peter Max, who did the album cover, and we have audio from there and from afterward, with the founder of a restaurant that supplied excellent vegan pizza at the event, with mastermind Amie Hamlin and with so called Vegan Pimp Sharon Nazarian, plus a cameo appearance by desserts diva Fran Costigan. We also play a couple tracks from the CD and have a Science Fact about the importance of good nutrition for young children.
