Did you know that February 22nd to March 7th is "Fair Trade Fortnight"?
This is organised by Traidcraft and is being supported by many industries as well as by the Diocese. We are all being encouraged to buy and use "Fairtrade" products, and especially this year, tea. At the moment just 10% of the tea we drink is fair-trade. Look out for various "Big Brew" events around that time, one of which will be on March 6th in the Church Rooms at Hemyock when we shall be having a "Big Brew" from 10am till 12noon. Fair-trade coffee and other goods as well - look for the posters!
