The
purpose of Wheatsville is to create a self-reliant,
self-empowering community of people that will grow and
promote a transformation of society toward cooperation,
justice, and nonexploitation.
Wheatsville's mission is to serve a broad range of
people by providing them goods and services and by using
efficient methods which avoid exploitation of the
producer and the environment.
The focus of this mission is to
supply high-quality food and nondoctrinaire information
about food to the people in Austin, Texas.
