    Translation of our Newsletter: Christmas is near - lets present to each other some ideas and inspriations!

    Dear FAIRtraders,
    Christmas is near and most of us start to brood, which presents to buy for whom. This presents a nice opportunty to tie giving away with a little reminder, how valuable FAIRtrade is, by giving away FAIRtrade presents.

    I would invite you, to share in a little article here your personal suggestion for your favourite FAIR present with us. This would on the one hand make a nice collection of ideas to inspire all of us, on the other hand we would learn a little more about each other!

    I would be delighted if we managed to start the season of Advent with a vivid exchange of ideas and mutual inspiration

    Let me start this with a suggestion from my side:
    Advent is near, and soon our children will hurry first thing in the morning to open the next door on their advent calendars on their countdown for Christmas. Get your Calender in a near by FAIRtrade store, there is a nice collection of differnt calendars available, and almost all of them have organic chocolate in it.

    I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO YOUR IDEAS AND SUGGESTIONS!

    Kind regards

    Frank

    "Fairtrade is the best hope for India's tea producers" says the Guardian yesterday

    Fairtrade is the best hope for India's tea producers

    The Chamraj estate in Tamil Nadu is thriving thanks to the Fairtrade Foundation - but the same cannot be said for the south Indian tea industry.

    A very nice article and movie on Fairtrade in India.
