 A COVENANT between GOD and HUMANITY, ensuring that the ever emergent gift of life on earth, might be continuously replenished by our trusteeship and our conscious husbandry of the finite resources of the land.

Judy Wicks’ 2004 E. F. Schumacher Lecture  on  principles that inspire similar locally-based businesses that treat employees fairly, source materials regionally, and support other community businesses.

“Let me capsulize the local-living-economy movement for you by contrasting what it is and what it is not, what it does and what it does not do:

          ·  maximization of relationships, not of profits;

• growth of consciousness and creativity, not brands and market share;
• democracy and decentralized ownership, not concentrated wealth;
• a living return, not the highest return;
• a living wage, not the minimum wage;
• a fair price, not the lowest price;
• sharing, not hoarding;
• simplicity, not luxury;
• life-serving, not self-serving;
• partnership, not domination;
• cooperation, not competition;
• win-win exchange, not win-lose exploitation;
• family farms, not factory farms;
• biodiversity, not monocrops;
• cultural diversity, not monoculture;
• creativity, not conformity;
• slow food, not fast food;
• our bucks, not Starbucks;
• our mart, not Wal-Mart;
