It is Fair Trade fortnight in Australia.
Fair Trade is about making sure that our business exchange with third world countries is not based on taking cruel advantage of the difference in power and wealth of the countries. You can read more about it HERE.
This is something YamDaisy can really help with! While the main focus for YanDaisy Cafes is on local produce, there will be items we need to source from Fair Trade companies and we can proudly do so. As YamDaisy Cafes become a bigger organisation, these decisions will have greater power and do more good in the countries where they are based.
