Fairtrade Fortnight and Big Brew Celebrations We have loved seeing your messages and photographs come through from your Fairtrade Fortnight and Big Brew celebrations. Please keep them coming! We thought we’d share some of them with you…
“Last December my local fair trade group held a stall as part of a Christmas fair at our local pub. Today we are following up on that connection with a Fairtrade Fortnight stall. The pub are serving soup using Ma’s coconut milk as their soup of the day, with the recipe cards our group developed on all the tables.” “Just back from our Big Brew event at Shrewsbury United Reformed Church (although we just call it our Fairtrade Shrewsbury coffee morning!). About 40 people attended and enjoyed a presentation over a cuppa (supplies kindly donated by the local Co-op) plus homemade brownies and tea bread, then orders taken for Easter eggs and sales made from our range of stock brought down from the market stall to the tune of about £330 including donations for refreshments.” Marion Haworth
“Stall set up @ WallaseyFood Lots of friendly stalls and ethical products.” Anne Litherland
