Wise Cicada "Gift Economy" Cafe opens in Newmarket - Video

.

 

I attended the opening event yesterday. They had a great turnout, and it was a fun day, and celebration of the manifestation of an idea, that came from co-creating with some awesomely creative people I have known for many years. I'm delighted I could make it, and take this brief video record of the opening. ---

A team of us are right now in the process of co-creating a vegan/vegetarian/raw food cafe running totally on gift economy! The cafe is contained within a natural health food store named Wise Cicada which also includes Goodeys Bookstore and a Naturopathic healing clinic all under the one roof. 

 

Our intention with this project is to create a light hearted gathering space that is a living model of a different way to do business where the focus is on mutual support and resource, rather than purely on profit. Our intention is also to give people a chance to play with the gift economy in a whole different setting - a cafe right in the middle of Newmarket! So when you come to this cafe you will choose the monetary amount you would like to give with great love from your abundance for the food and drink that will be been lovingly made for you.
