Quaker Earthcare Witness

Who are we?

Quaker Earthcare Witness is a spiritually-centered organization of American Quakers and like-minded people seeking ways to integrate their concern for environment with Friends' long-standing testimonies for simplicity, peace, and equality.

What do we do?

Quaker Earthcare Witness encourages Friends to explore the spiritual roots of humanity's relationship to the earth. We seek a transformation in attitudes toward the Earth and all living beings. As time is limited to prevent further irreversible damage, we support informed, spirit-led action on all environmental issues: pollution, toxic wastes, conservation, recycling, energy use, global warming, loss of species and habitats, loss of arable lands, and population pressures.

QEW staff and supporters lead workshops, give talks, and staff the Earthcare Center at FGC Gatherings. We also have a presence at many Yearly Meeting sessions.

Quaker Earthcare Witness is a major supporter of La Bella Farm, a sustainable agriculture project in Costa Rica, which involves caring for land that was threatened, while caring for people who had no land. We also sponsor annual exchange visits between Costa Rican and North American farmers. More on La Bella Farm

To aid grassroots networking among Friends, Quaker Earthcare Witness publishes BeFriending Creation, a bimonthly newsletter, the Quaker Eco-Bulletin and many other books and flyers. See the Current BeFriending Creation. See the current Quaker Eco-Bulletin

.Quaker Earthcare Witness encourages participation of all Friends and their organizations, as well as interested non-Quaker groups and individuals. A growing number of environmentally aware Friends in North America are active through their Monthly and Yearly Meetings. We welcome opportunities to work with them and other like-minded people and to share information, queries, success stories, and helpful ideas.
