Locally Produced - Local Economy
Just Earth is a passionate supporter and advocate of building sustainable local economies and resilient communities, here and world-wide.
Just Earth supports local economic development in several ways: by supporting local producers who take the form of artisans, cooperatives or small family businesses through selling a selection of locally made products, all of which are an excellent organic or sustainable option.
We also support the development of local economies world-wide through selling fair-trade products around the world that ensure profits are distributed fairly to the producers and their communities.
Supporting local economy also means that we provide training and employment opportunities to otherwise excluded individuals in the community; and by undertaking community development initiatives aimed at building the local community’s resilience and sustainability.
As with the purchase of certified Fair Trade products, which currently represents one of the most effective structural long-term solutions to global poverty by creating, buying local is an ethical choice that you can make for yourself, family and even your workplace.
Just Earth is a proud supporter of local producers, stocking the goods of numerous local artisans, small family businesses and cooperatives. Buying from Just Earth ensures that your money helps protect and grow local economies, here and overseas. |
