This Saturday – May 8 – is World Fair Trade Day, a time when we all call attention to the benefits of fair trade. From coffee to tea to chocolate to T-shirts, fairly traded goods are essential to many entrepreneurs, employees, and enterprises all around the world. To participate, see what events are happening near you. Or, pop into your local Ten Thousand Villages store (which has a lot of options for Mother’s Day) and browse around. It’s easier than ever to find fair trade items, but we’ll still need to do our part to let our wallets do the talking.
