With Fair Trade Month just around the corner, it's time to celebrate the unique partnership of Catholic Relief Services and Equal Exchange. Out of this partnership comes Mama Tierra, a Fair Trade Organic Coffee from Oaxaca, Mexico. Farmers are paid a fair price for their coffee, establish long term contracts and invest in community development projects. CRS helps the same farmers protect their local water sources from coffee waste water contamination. This helps to strengthen coffee farming communities and ensure they can produce coffee for years to come.
