Author Visit: Judy Wicks Discusses Good Morning Beautiful, Business

 Join us as Judy Wicks discusses her book Good Morning, Beautiful Business. Ms. Wicks is best known for her founding of Philadelphia's White Dog Café in 1983. Wicks became a pioneer in the local food movement in Philadelphia and was a business trailblazer in running The White Dog through paying a living wage, mentoring inner-city high school students, recycling and composting, solar heated hot water, eco-friendly soaps and office supplies, and purchasing 100% of electricity from renewable sources, the first business in Pennsylvania to do so.
 Good Morning, Beautiful Business: The Unexpected Journey of an Activist Entrepreneur and Local-Economy Pioneer is a memoir about the evolution of an entrepreneur who would not only change her neighborhood, but would also change her world—helping communities far and wide create local, living economies that value people and place as much as commerce and that make communities not just interesting and diverse and prosperous, but also resilient.
Copies of Good Morning, Beautiful Business will be available for purchase at the event.
  Partnering with HTFL on this event is the Oakmont Farmer’s Market and the Haverford Partnership for Economic Development. Food at the event will be provided by a number of the Oakmont Farmer’s Market vendors.
   Judy Wick's visit to the Library is a Civic & Social, Health and Basic Literacy program of the PA Forward Initiative.
