Farm Sanctuary is Looking for a Few Good Volunteers

by Paris Harvey
As part of its national campaign against Wolfgang Puck, Farm Sanctuary is looking for a few good volunteers in the Bay Area to help organize and attend regular demonstrations outside Wolfgang Puck’s “Postrio” restaurant in downtown San Francisco.
The demonstrations will be part of a ongoing, nationwide campaign to convince Puck to remove two items of egregious cruelty – foie gras and crated veal – from his menus. As perhaps the most high-profile celebrity chef in the U.S., with an extensive network of restaurants and eateries across the country, Puck holds a great day of influence in the world of ‘fine’ dining. Perhaps more than anyone else, Puck’s menu decisions have a significant impact on the state of the veal and foie gras industries.

Currently, Los Angeles activists have garnered positive media attention for their weekly vigils outside Puck’s “Spago” restaurant in Beverly Hills. If you can help San Francisco do its part for this campaign, please contact Ariana Huemer: ahuemer [at] farmsanctuary.org.

For more information on the campaign, see http://www.WolfgangPuckCruelty.org
