What is Fair Trade? Development agencies recognised the important role that consumers could play to improve the situation for producers. By buying direct from farmers at better prices, helping to strengthen their organisations and marketing their produce directly through their own one world shops and catalogues, the charities offered consumers the opportunity to buy products which were bought on the basis of a fair trade.
The FAIRTRADE Mark is an independent consumer label which appears on products as an independent guarantee that disadvantaged producers in the developing world are getting a better deal.
Introducing Little Green Babies Fair Trade Clothing – Little Green Radicals The organic, Fair-trade Little Green Radicals clothing brand is manufactured by Sekem. Sekem is an inspirational project set up in
Egypt in the 1970s. It is based on biodynamic agriculture (a strict form of organic agriculture, defined by Rhudolf Steiner) and now has seven businesses within it, including a textiles division. Employees have access to a modern hospital and hot meals. They have a school, a kindergarten, and even a university. Many people learn musical instruments, the architecture is designed with space and light in mind and there is an amphitheatre where employees perform music concerts and plays. Employees are involved in decision making.
Everything is Fair-trade certified by the Fair-trade Labelling Organisation and they adhere to the strictest organic standards, set out by Demeter.
Little Green Babies is a new company set up by Jo, a Mum of 3, Step-daughter Faith, 6, James, 2, and Thomas, 7 months. We are based in the High Peak of England in a little village called Hayfield. After going on maternity leave I discovered I didn’t want to go back to work just quite yet and developed the idea of Little Green Babies.
I found going shopping very stressful with all 3 children and started to come up with ideas to combat this. Little Green Babies Home Shopping Parties was born. We have put together a range of high quality, funky products for your baby and you. The best place to view these products is at your home during a relaxing evening or afternoon with your fellow Mum’s, Grandma’s and doting Aunties.
Little Green Babies is an ethical choice for both you and your baby, we specialise in bringing you the most modern, funky clothes and accessories without having to compromise on your ethics. From stripy tops to fair-trade fairy dresses, leather shoes made in Leistershire to the Baby Hoodie made in
Derby! If you shop with Little Green Babies you can experience the very best is guilt free shopping. So for Fair Trade Childrens Clothing come on over to http://www.littlegreenbabies.co.uk/
