Farmers in developing countries work hard to secure a living and support their families,only to see the fruits of their labour swallowed through unjust global trading systems. These allow multinationals to flood the markets with cheaper produce, eventually forcing them out of business. They sink deeper into the spiral of debt and poverty in their struggle to survive.

The Fairtrade foundation works with farmers, guaranteeing a fair price for their produce, plus a social premium for business or community development. By supporting these producers we are standing up for justice in the market place. Simply by using our consumer power we can change the world for the better.

"Let justice roll on like a river, righteousness
like a never-failing stream" Amos 5:24
