MURAL WORDS

GMB Georgie May Birch Public Seen by 144

As emailed it would be great to get some suggestions on what words to include in the green action tree mural design that has been emailed around. I propose about 6 words that describe the values of the food co-op within green action. Words like 'ethical, organic, health...' can all be used to attract future members to engaging with the shop. Put down your suggestions here and then we can hopefully get painting very soon :)

Love the Design and the colour! :D 'Green Action Cooperative' might be better above the tree in a straight line, I find it quite hard to read within the branches... just an idea...

We're still gonna have Green Action Food Co-op on the top of the shop as usual. Something about working together or community would be good. I like sustainable, local and ethical.

I like what has been proposed but would aim to always go for a positive version. Instead of non-hierarchical --> horizontal

ok! so as not to bombard the design with words as when we're open we're the ones who can give all this delightful information :) Anything we put is already giving more information and attraction than the currently grey metal shutter.
I also think it might be good to stick to words that tend to be easily understood by a wide selection of people.
To move this forward and so i can send a proposal to the union/ we can paint this after easter?
I propose:
ETHICAL, SUSTAINABLE, COMMUNITY, AWARE, HEALTH, INCLUSIVE?
