Yesterday was Fair Trade Awareness Day, and I joined the F.A.I.R. group on their “shop hop” where they visited local merchants featuring fair trade products. I had to leave early because my bank account couldn’t handle any more shops! It’s great to purchase something knowing that it was fairly made, the merchants are being supported, and because these shops are locally owned, the profits help support our community.

Thanks, ladies of FAIR for letting lizzie photo be a part of your day.
