Name
The Earth Market
country
Poland
Goal
The Earth Market is based on the passion and belief that food obtained through short supply chains is of greater biological value than that mass produced and available in a conventional supermarket. In this sense, the Earth Market focuses on nutritional issues, rather than economic issues. In 2016, it was decided to conduct an experiment entitled Earth Market on the basis of whether the idea of selling local products is accepted. The Earth Market sells local, artisan food products, and has now grown to offer an educational space, workshops, and exhibition of local artists.
