The Cascadia Movement
Cascadia is a geo-political term. The core principles of Cascadia are bioregionalism, sustainability & ecology, identity & culture, inclusivity & autonomy, and a decentralized political structure. I do my best to adhere to the protection of natural resources and use of sustainable, local, and responsibly sourced ingredients in all my products. My packing materials are plastic-free sustainable alternatives like paper, cardboard, and plant-based materials. I choose the Cascadia Movement as a concept that supports my business philosophy.
The Cascadia Flag was designed in 1994 by Portland native Alexander Baretich. In his description“the blue of the flag represents the moisture-rich sky above, and the Pacific Ocean, along with the Salish Sea, lakes, and inland waters. Our home is a place of continuous cascading waters flowing from the Pacific to the western slopes of the Rockies and Cascades where water cycles back to the Pacific. The white represents snow and clouds, and the green represents the evergreen forests and fields of the Pacific Northwest. The lone-standing Douglas Fir symbolizes endurance, defiance, and resilience. All these symbols come together to symbolize what being Cascadian is all about.” Free Cascadia!
