Fair Trade Market
Filed Under CLC Events, Good News Goods | Leave a Comment
Texas Baptists can host a fair trade market at churches where you sell Trade as One product at a single event, usually in the fall. However, a way for churches to engage with these issues and directly support the good work being done is by signing up to be a Good News Goods "Trading Post." As a "Trading Post" partner churches will sell fair trade consumables, coffee, tea, sugar, rice, olive oil, lotions, chocolate and cosmetics on a regular basis.
