Where is Fair Trade?
October is Fair Trade Month! Celebrate by learning where Fair Trade is. Choose a country from the map below and learn about the lives of the farmers and artisans that produce the Fair Trade products. see http://fairtrd.us/1cj00hK
I chose Madagascar where the Association Tsiry Andampin'ny Fosa was created in May 2008 by a small number of vanilla producers who met in the school building of the village Andampin’ny Fosa. They formed the association with the goal to produce and market top quality vanilla by combining forces and pooling capacities and competences of the vanilla growers in the region.
