Issue #3

Ripe is a 1/4-letter size vegan cookzine published by Jae Steele of Montreal, Quebec. Each issue features a number of vegan recipes, along with cooking articles and product reviews.

Ripe is a follow-up to jae's first cookzine, Vegan Freegan (2002).

Much of the content of these zines, along with other holistic health information, will be published by Arsenal Pulp Press (arsenalpulp.com) in 2008 as a cookbook called Get It Ripe: A Fresh Take on Vegan Living.
