Today is the start of Fairtrade Fortnight, a celebration of Fairtrade products and the best time to make the change.  A Fairtrade branded bus will be touring the UK spreading the word (see the bottom of this post for details*), and there will be lots of other local events happening throughout the country.

The most important thing that you can do to support Fairtrade (and give farmers and producers in developing countries a fair price for their goods) is to choose products with the Fairtrade mark.  And right here at ShopGreen is a great place to start.   Once you’ve discovered the Fairtrade delights to be had, tell you friends about them and make the world a fairer place.
