It's a Fair Trade Halloween

This year, add a little something different (and a lot fairer) to your Halloween traditions. Instead of just going from house-to-house collecting candy with your kids, give some away with a message. The term ["Reverse Trick-or-Treating"][] is the focus this Halloween. It’s easy (and fun): Just take your children (and anyone else) and hand out samples of fair trade chocolate to all the candy-givers you visit next Friday. Pair this chocolate with a card that describes the environmental and social injustices in the corporate cocoa industry, and soon everyone will know why buying fair trade chocolate is much cooler.
