Fair Trade Coffee - Interview with Tom Hanlon-Wilde from Equal Exchange (RR06)

In this episode of the Roast and Reason podcast I will discuss the coffee and Fair Trade industry with an expert with decades of experience. We briefly highlighted the different coffee certification programs in the last episode. Today we will take a closer look at Fair Trade.

Tom Hanlon-Wilde has year of experience helping bring Fair Trade coffee and other products to market and partnering with coffee growers to improve their products and lives. Tom is a member and co-owner of Equal Exchange, the employee-owned coop here in America that offers Fair Trade coffee, tea, chocolate and other products in grocery stores and on their website equalexchange.coop.

I encourage you to support Equal Exchange and other Fair Trade organizations. Use your purchases to vote with your dollars and help create the world that you want to live in.
