Fair Trade Fall
October 1, 2006
October is Fair Trade Month
Fall is a time of harvest and abundance, but many people
simply do not have enough of the basic necessities. Fair
trade alleviates poverty by creating opportunities for
economically disadvantaged producers. The goal of Fair
Trade Month is to raise awareness of the necessity of fair
trade and the good it does throughout the world, while
expanding the market for fairly traded products. This
month, spread the word about fair trade – ask your local
cafes, grocery stores and clothing boutiques to start
carrying fair trade products or to expand their product
lines if they already do. Support fair trade and help make
the fall harvest bountiful for everyone!
Mark Your Calendars!
Fair Industry plans to join Wild Oats for its annual
Harvest Fest on 14 October 2006 in Princeton, New Jersey.
We will have plenty of beautiful Fair Industry clothing and
jewelry available for purchase. Watch the website at
www.fairindustry.com for details!
Happy Fair Trade Month from Fair Industry!
