Celebrate People and Planet with Every Purchase
Each October, we celebrate Fairtrade Month — a time to recognize the farmers, workers, and communities behind the products we enjoy every day. By choosing Fairtrade, Canadians are standing up for fair wages, decent working conditions, and a more sustainable future. Whether you're new to Fairtrade or already part of the movement, there are so many ways to get involved.
What to expect
Throughout the month, we’ll be sharing ways to learn, shop, and take action — all rooted in the values of fairness and justice. Join us as we:
- Share stories from Fairtrade producers around the world
- Highlight Fairtrade-certified brands available in Canada
- Explore the impact of ethical shopping
- Celebrate the power of everyday actions
