Annie Lennox Supports World Fair Trade Day

This is a great video on YouTube in which Annie Lennox tells of her support for World Fair Trade Day. 

Will you join us on Saturday, May 9th @ 9 am? Bring your own mug for Fair Trade coffee, tea, cocoa and snacks. A drumming circle will help us make a Big Bang for Fair Trade around Tahoe. If you can't make ours, go to Gaia-Licious in South Lake or Alley Cat Cafe in Quincy. Or, check out your city or town for a World Fair Trade Day event at http://www.FTRN.org .

World Fair Trade Day Generates Big Buzz

“World Fair Trade Day is a great idea. Fair Trade is essential for millions of people who work and struggle for survival everyday. It’s all about justice and human rights. So why don’t you join me in supporting World Fair Trade Day 09” Sir Paul McCartney 

Back from the FTF conference & excited!

We've just returned from the Fair Trade Federation and had a great time meeting with other Fair Traders. We threw around plenty of ideas, and found amazing new Fair Trade items to bring into Fair & Green this spring/summer (and even for Winter '09). 

So be on the lookout for new musical instruments, baskets, jewelry, and many other wonderful Fair Trade crafts from around the world in April and May at Fair & Green.
