At Earth's General Store we offer visitors information and products that will help them reduce their ecological and social impact on the planet and all inhabitants. We are a distributor of information and knowledge, encouraging people to consume less, consume wisely, consume locally and love lots more! We do this by offering items that have beneficial advantages - local, certified organic, Fair Trade Certified. We are attempting to offer a way of life that is balanced and respectful of the planet and all its creatures. I know this sounds a little wishy washy but I believe that is our ultimate goal in life - do as little harm as possible and leave the world better than when we arrived. March 5th, 2010We have added several bulk food items - flours, grains, beans, popcorn, and even chocolate chips. We have expanded our gluten free/wheat free product line. February 24th, 2010Well the sales are not as much as I was hoping for - in fact they are only a little bit better than what we were doing a our former location. So I need to lay a little bit out there. February 5th, 2010 - New Location OpeningWell it has been a long time coming but tomorrow at 10 am Earth's General Store (on Saturday, February 6th, 2010) is going to open our doors at our new location (9605 - 82nd Avenue). Yahooooooo! February 2nd, 2010Soon we will be able to open our latest version of Earth's General Store! Some progress was made today that is visible. Items got onto the shelves, shelves got moved, floors got cleaned, sidewalks got shovelled, lots of empty boxes were taken to the recycling centre, and items diverted to my bulging garage. February 2nd, 2010I had to postpone the Health Services Inspection that was scheduled for yesterday. We were no way near ready for it (they like it complete - as in just before opening). January 28th, 2010We are very busy at the new space unpacking boxes, organising, trying to get approval to open (so many permits and inspections). Activist AgendaThe Activist Agenda lists events and activities that help to shape/shift our world to a more balanced and just place. Presently the Activist Agenda can be found at http://greenedmonton.ca/activistAgenda/viewAA.
