Expanding Fair Trade Online
Date & Time:

We’re opening our doors to the world with the launching of our web store on May 8, World Fairtrade Day. Our Fairtrade store in the historical district of Hudson, Ohio has been enthusiastically received as people have learned the value of trading fairly with people all around the world. So we thought it would be a good time to take our message to the streets of cyber space and invite folks everywhere to join us in promoting justice in the marketplace. Drop by the store at www.janetrhodesonline.com and find a gift or two for yourself and others.
