We are a Fair Trade Store.
We are an ethical, sustainable, eco-friendly, socially good, and culturally diverse artisan gift shop.
Fair Trade is Social Buying - From far-away farms & village marts to your shopping cart, products that bear Fair Trade Certified are from farmers, artisans & workers who are justly compensated. Goods and money are exchanged in 'EQUAL' Fair Trade for consumers goods.
Fair trade is a 'WE thing! #WeAreOne - It takes a village, a town, community, and all the folks in-between and over and around the world to make this work.
With Fair Trade, ethical purchases are accomplished with the money we spend on day-to-day goods whereby improving an entire community’s day-to-day lives. Health, Medicine, Food, Shelter, ...even running water, all the basics that we take for granted are accomplished through fair trade purchases.
Every fair trade purchase we make helps producers in developing countries achieve better trading conditions & promotes sustainability. (that means no child and slave labor or unsafe working conditions.) - Oh, and it means that we know exactly where our products are coming from and how they got there!
Our store has complete profiles of all the artisans we support through our store. Together, we can all be a part of a just and ethical movement that greatly impacts so many in need. Please choose products that change lives. Read the labels, choose fair trade. #PurchasewithPurpose
