Earthdance has become a global event unlike any other, with more than 350 locations contributing to, and building the energy of peace on our shared planet.
It is this consciousness that we want to bring to your festival here in
California and this consciousness we want reflected in our marketplace.
We are in a transitional phase of the global marketplace
business practices. A time when positive business practices will be encouraged,
and business practices that profit without just return to the community
will be let go.
We also want to invite new vendors each year. Our space is limited and we give priority to returning vendors.
However, we do rotate vendors each year.
We chose vendors according to product, we look for diversity
amongst our booths and strive to help local quality hand crafters. We
require all importers to belong to a fair trade organization or its equivalent.
We choose vendors who support living wages and safe and healthy conditions
for workers in the developing world. |
