In addition to the organic shop as a social agent
- Goierriko Baratza is a small organic product store in Ordizia, created 13 years ago between two partners. “At the beginning there were no current offers in organic products and we saw the possibility of opening a store of this kind,” explains Danel Etxeberria Pascual. However, from the beginning both members were clear that the project was going to be a project beyond mere business. In other words, they would actively work to socialize the issue of ecological consumption.
Zarata mediatikoz beteriko garai nahasiotan, merkatu logiketatik urrun eta irakurleengandik gertu dagoen kazetaritza beharrezkoa dela uste baduzu, ARGIA bultzatzera animatu nahi zaitugu. Geroz eta gehiago gara, jarrai dezagun txikitik eragiten.
Ecological supply and awareness-raising
In Goierriko Baratza they give importance to local products, but all the goods offered must be organic production. “We bring products with organic production seal to the store, which is what guarantees us at the moment that the product has actually been produced in an ecological way,” explains Etxeberria. Since the beginning of the project, activities have been organized to sensitize and train society. Among other activities, visits to organic production houses, lectures, workshops and book presentations have been organized in the Huerta del Goierri.
Green fortnight and creation of the consumer group
For several years, Goierriko Baratzak, in collaboration with the Zerain City Hall, has been organizing the Goierri's organic fortnight. In some villages in the region there are many activities at the end of September, and this year a varied programme has also been organized for the fortnight: a workshop on intestinal bacteria, a talk on ecological horticulture, the presentation of the Goieko organic meat association and a visit to an organic production farm.
This year the novelty and good news has been the presentation of the new consumption group in the fortnight: “The consumption group is a group that has been created within the criteria of the Basherri network. An organic producer from Ataun will prepare baskets for the fourteen families that have registered each week,” explains Etxeberria. Goierriko Baratza has contributed to the creation of a new consumer group. “We support the producer because we believe that our job is also to help people who work in other models.”
