FAIRTRADE MONTH
We are shoppers, grocers, brands, and farmers. We come together in the choices we make so that the people who grow our food get a fairer deal for their work. Together, we’re making equitable the new normal — because fairness should never be optional. Together, We are Fairtrade.
Throughout the month of October, we’ll be celebrating our collective effort in building a fairer world. This year is extra special as we’re celebrating 30 years of Fairtrade in Canada! So, join the fun — Fairtrade Month is a party where all the guests have a seat at the table.
