Reviews
For many years Oxford Vegetarians published a quarterly members' newsletter. Latterly entitled The Oven (shorthand for Oxford Vegetarians Newsletter) it usually comprised four pages including a front page editorial, reviews, a members page, and general articles of interest to vegetarians and vegans.
Publication of The Oven in printed form ended with the April 2006 issue. Members with an email address now receive a regular email newsletter covering much the same ground as The Oven and previewing forthcoming events. However, many of the reviews from members' newsletters remain pertinent and links to a selection of them, plus some more recent reviews, can be found in this section
We are considering beginning a book library, or book club to review books that are of interest to members. If you would be interested in taking part, or helping, please Contact Us
