In Minneapolis, we give Fair Trade Awards (for free) to small businesses & food co-ops to celebrate the number of different Fair Trade products they sell.
We encourage people to choose Fair Trade coffee, tea, chocolate, sugar, bananas, and artisan products to pay farmers and artisans fairly, protect the environment with the Fair Trade Standards, and ensure that cocoa is farmed by adults.
