This month's post is celebrating our ten year anniversary and we wanted to take time to say how much we love and cherish all our incredible customers! So much has changed in these years from opening a shop during a pre social media time, to now - living in a digital age where social media and online are gaining more and more popularity. We couldn't have come this far without all of you, our supporters, you have come out in crazy weather, you have listened to our story and you have supported us not only with purchasing Fair Trade goods but also by kind words, friendly smiles and over the years turning customers into friends.

I know most people get sick of hearing how bad something is, whether it's sugar for your health or if it's the radiation coming from your cellphone. However, it's indeed a fact that the Fashion Industry is the SECOND most polluting industry. If any of you are wondering, why does this even matter?
