I've always wondered if vegetables from a farm that uses horse-drawn tills instead of tractors would be vegan... It's a real question, but everyone I ask thinks that I'm trolling.

I'd say no because horses can't consent to being used for this. Horse riding is generally not considered vegan either

Each vegan will have their own answer. If you are truly curious, and a vegan is sharing their mindset with you, ask them.

Oooooooh, even using tractors could be considered non-vegan, if they're powered by fossil fuels, then they're powered from the remains of dinosaurs, which were very much animals

Or animal manure, or pesticides

I mean vegans want veganic produce the most. But it’s not widespread enough to be able to only eat that. It’s not about being perfect but doing what you can.
