What is interdependence?

A few years ago, when I was working at The Food Conspiracy Co-Op in Tucson, a customer of mine wished me a Happy Interdependence Day. He then smiled and said, “…because we all need each other.”

That message has stayed with me these past few years and has offered me inspiration and a sense of purpose regarding the store.

We depend upon pollinators such as bees, bats, and hummingbirds to help the plants that feed our bodies fruit.

Those pollinators depend upon the flowering of those plants, and those plants depend upon microbes and minerals in the soil.

Babies depend fully on others. Communities depend upon some form of communication between all who are part. Economies depend upon exchange.

Simply, interdependence is the web of life in which we are all woven. Read More >

Local

We love local. There is nothing so vital as eating fresh, recently-harvested vegetables grown in near-by soil. And once you have had the raw milk from Plum Prairie Creamery, or eaten Karen or Paery’s hand - crafted sourdoughs, you just might be hooked. We don’t need to ship these products in, and in turn we don’t ship our resources out. We get to invest in and enjoy the fruits of members of our own community.
