A Sustainable Wharfedale endorsement scheme - shops meeting a set of green initiatives will be able to place a logo in the window to show they meet a standard.

Start www.ilkleymarket.co.uk and give people an alternative to tescodirect. Link the local shops to a single website to buy local produce from a single location by a single payment via a single delivery van.

Start a real market once a week down the centre of the grove.

Proper labelling we want to know what we are buying and where it comes from and how it got here. Booths aims to be a local store - they have some good local food.
Lose the packaging, get the shops to use brown paper bags / greaseproof paper and refill containers.
Relocate jdcycles onto the grove - cycle hire, cycle maintainance on the high street

see Ilkleyfreecyclecafe for local info
