Monster Peppers Values
Educating And Implementing
Sustainable Growing Practices
Growing food is a fun activity. Learning how to grow your own food is a life long and therapeutic skill. There are many growing methods, but we want to keep you informed on all the harmful growing practices that you should avoid while learning how to grow your food safely for your family and the local environment. Let’s all start growing our own food!
Ending Systemic Racism
And Marginalization Of People
We believe in representation of all farmers and gardeners do matter and we want to fight against all discrimination based on race, sexual orientation, and gender identity. Let stop discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity globally. Together we can make the world safer and one big bountiful garden for all races and genders.
Putting A Stop To Animal Cruelty
And Abuse In Factory Farming
Let’s start cracking down on the cruel confinement of farm animals where they are locked in cages and are barely able to move. We believe that all animals are sentient and sapient. Just because animals do not have a way to voice their opinions does not mean that this is a way to treat them, even if their purpose is ultimately to be eaten. We can do better.
Soil Health And Climate Change
Human Health and Nutrition
It really simple, we want to make sure humanity has access to safe drinking water and food not containing array pesticides. Harmful substances that can affect one health long term. The result of pollution and climate change are going to disrupt and threatening the future for everyone, it is imperative that we maintain the health of our planet soil and biodiversity. At the current rate humanity heading towards a dystopian post-apocalyptic future were the planet is not hospitable for human life or life itself. Let’s work together for life’s sake.
Reaching Out And Standing
With Small Businesses
There is nothing wrong with the pursuit of wealth in a society that utilizes it responsibly and relies on it to stay alive and civil… right? Big Agriculture and any too big to fail business get bail outs and subsidies while small businesses are suffering just as much as the tax payers. That is an irresponsible use of wealth. Taxation is theft towards sacrificial workers that don’t benefit from their labor. We would like to collaborate and reach out to small businesses and entrepreneurs that have our similar core values. We believe it vital to also help and support others, now more then ever.
Public Power For All:
Helping People Create Opportunities
We support channeling wealth towards creating opportunities for everyone and systems that work to meet human needs—not to profit the already wealthy few. If we work together, we can help working class have stronger economic power. We seek to restrain the destructive practices of those that have excessive power and support initiatives and efforts that help improve the lives of the working class. While we focus on science and reason, we also care about empathy, emotional context and the sociopolitical nuance of today’s problems for people.
Food For Thought
Our perception of the world shapes how we contribute to it. By seeing the world as a community of interconnected beings rather than mere resources for profit, we can cultivate a mindset that prioritizes the well-being of others. We aspire to create a world where the distribution of resources is balanced between the wealth of corporations and the working class, recognizing the vital role each plays in generating prosperity. We hold this core belief as the seed of our business's future. This perspective holds immense importance to us because it directly influences the impact we have on life itself. Rather than adhering to the notion that successful businesses must prioritize profit above all else, we embrace the concept of enhancing people life’s, surroundings, and ecosystems, rather than exploiting them.
At Monster Peppers, we apply this belief to our practices of growing peppers and protecting the ecosystems in which we operate. While we are often taught that evolution depends on competition and survival of the fittest, we acknowledge that this belief stems from capitalism projected onto the natural world. From an early age, our worldview is shaped to align with a capitalist mindset that emphasizes competition as the driving force of evolution. However, the creatures that have truly thrived in the long run have not done so by excessively exploiting their environments; rather, they have succeeded by improving their habitats and nurturing their communities. We understand that the ongoing prosperity of a thriving business is indebted to the unwavering commitment of the working class, whose diligent efforts ensure the smooth operation of its endeavors. We strive to create a sustainable future that benefits both our company and the wider communities.
By eschewing the use of pesticides, we reduce harm to other beings and foster a healthier environment. We understand the need to stop the use of harmful chemicals and their impact on the environment, as well as the potential risks they pose to human health. Promoting sustainable and eco-friendly practices and adopting the perspective of viewing the entire world as our home, an interconnected ecosystem, and a community of beings, rather than mere resources to exploit for profit, fosters a way of thinking that prioritizes the well-being of others and the overall health of the planet. We believe that if more people shift their focus towards building a healthier world instead of solely pursuing profits, we can create a more sustainable and harmonious future. Don’t lose sight of what matters, a healthy world for a happy life.
These are the values that guide our work.
