It is the goal of the Critical mass Working Capital Group to establish a network of group-production and marketing facilities where members of the industry and community can access space, manpower, equipment, technology, communications, marketing, sales and production capacities at practical rates.
    Banding together, these micro-businesses will become a "folk industry" of arts, crafts, agriculture, food production, outdoor recreation and tourism that will better the communities and systems in which they reside.
    The long-term goal of Critical Mass is to re-establish the community as the primary unit of economic force in American Commerce.  Starting with the region of Western Massachusetts, Critical Mass hopes to develop longstanding commercial relationships between independent micro-businesses based on voluntary, mutual interdependence.
