So what is fairtrade?
Fairtrade is about better prices, decent working conditions, local sustainability, and fair terms of trade for farmers and workers in the developing world. By requiring companies to pay sustainable prices (which must never fall lower than the market price), Fairtrade addresses the injustices of conventional trade, which traditionally discriminates against the poorest, weakest producers. It enables them to improve their position and have more control over their lives.
So how can you help?
How about swapping your usual purchases for a fairtrade one, whether it be tea, coffee, chocolate or clothes. You never know once you try you might never go back!
What are we doing?
At the baby duck shop we have a great selection of Organic Fairtrade clothes for your little ones from ethical suppliers who take pride in what they make. To help you make the swap even easier we are offering 20% off all Piccalilly, Organics for Kids and the Barley & Birch Lap Tees for the duration of the Fairtrade Fortnight (whilst stocks last!)

With your help and by supporting Fairtrade you are helping hundreds of farmers and workers better their lives and that of their familes!
