Over the last few years we have been supporting fair trade fortnight in many different ways: from holding a Fairtrade tea party, eating fair trade bananas and swapping thousands of carrier bags for fair trade jute bags. This year we are doing our bit by working with lots of Fairtrade friends to take a big step for Fairtrade.
This year’s big theme of Fairtrade Fortnight is to go further for smallholder farmers. Despite these farmers producing 70% of the world food, these farmers often go hungry.
Here at Myakka we like to spread the fair trade word and this Fairtrade Fortnight we have featured a fair trade brand every day. To finish off the fortnight with a final flourish we have teamed up with some of our favourite Fairtrade friends to bring you a fantastic Fairtrade hamper packed full of Fairtrade goodies.
The very lucky winner of the hamper will receive
- Harry’s Nuts Fairtrade cashews and peanuts, peanut butter and two signed Harry Hill books, ‘Harry Hill’s Whopping Great Joke Book’ and ‘A Complete History of Tim’
