Alicia Silverstone is asking a very simple question to vegan moms: Got Milk?
The mom and actress, 36, best known as the superficial teenager, Cher in "Clueless," is launching a new program calling for woman to donate their vegan-friendly, organic breast milk, according to People. The Kind Mama Milk Share aims to pair moms needing nutrient-rich milk with lactating women, who adhere to a strict vegetable-full diet.
Silverstone, who announced the unique program on her "Kind Life" website, supports green, eco-friendly lifestyles.
"Because we are a community of beautiful souls who recognize the importance of food as health, I say we help support those mamas and babies who need a hand during one of the most important times in their lives," she wrote in the post announcing the new initiative. "If you have milk to share - post it! If you are in need of milk - post it! Think of all the babies will can help raise together!"
The vegan screen star was inspired by a friend, who had difficulty finding milk to feed her son after a breast-reduction surgery soured her supply.
"[My friend] tried reaching out in her community for donor milk, but it was impossible to figure out what kind of lifestyle choices the donors had made," Silverstone said. "And after all that hard work keeping herself vibrant and healthy, she felt she had a right to demand better for her baby."
And this is not the first time that Silverstone has gotten behind a revolutionary parenting practice. In 2012, she raised eyebrows when she fed her previously chewed food to her then-10 month old son, Bear Blu in a publicly released video.
"People have been feeding their kids that way for thousands of years," she told People. "It's a weaning process. I think it's adorable and I laugh every time he does it.
