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.

June 14th, 2010Earlier this spring I started some seedlings of Maridolds and Calendula so that I could plant them in the boulevard on Whyte Avenue - to brighten it up. I cared for these seedlings for many weeks and last Sunday I spent about 6 hours planting and watering them. Unfortunately I failed these plants. I did not put up a barricade or signage to alert the city crews that they were there (which I had planned to do yesterday and failed to do so and it was on my list of thigns to do today). Unfortauntely when I arrived at work this morning the city had a couple of crews out to cut down the 20 trees in the boulevard but it appears that they had also sent out a crew earlier to cut the grass. They cut down almost 100% of the marigolds and most of the calendula. I will try and figure out something to resolve this. June 10th, 2010Yesterday I spent a very pleasant hour with Liane Faulder from the Edmonton Journal. We were sampling menu items at Mill Creek Cafe that use Daiya Cheese (a vegan/lactose-Free cheese product made in Vancouver) instead of the usual cow cheese. Grilled Cheese sandwich, Margarita Pizza, Quesadilla, and Grilled Vegetable sandwich - Yum! June 1st, 2010Daiya Cheese is here in Edmonton at Earth's General Store. I received 360 pounds of Daiya vegan/lactose free cheese yesterday. 180 pounds of Mozzarella (Italian) and 180 pounds of Cheddar flavour. Both products are shredded.

Sunday, May 16th, 2010Attended the Canadian Health Food Association 'Expo West 2010' conference this weekend. Big show. Freezers, Coolers, and new stuff!With the help of David Parker the coolers and freezers were connected to teh electrical panel and I ordered a small order of product. The response has been favourable and this week I ordered more products to put in them. |
