Before you shop, a word about Fair Trade.
Fair Trade means an equitable and fair partnership between global marketers and producers in Asia, Africa, Latin America and other parts of the world. A fair trade partnership works to provide low-income artisans and farmers with a living wage for their work.
Fair trade is a socially conscientious way to shop and make a difference in people’s lives. Our store is staffed by volunteers who want to make the world a better place. If you would like to volunteer, we would love to hear from you!
Please use the contact form to volunteer, or to ask any questions. We have an adjoining listening room which hosts local artists and musicians. Be sure to check out our calendar of events!
