"Ten Thousand Thanks" to our customers and committed volunteers. You have made our first year of trading fairly a huge success. It is now our turn to give back to you.

Please join us for our 1st anniversary party on Sunday, September 7th. Enjoy energetic dancing, dynamic drumming and more.  We will be offering assorted appetizers and desserts, fair-trade coffee and tea, and lemonade for the kiddies. Admission is free. The doors open at 12:00 p.m. and the entertainment will begin at 1:00pm.

Don't miss out on the opportunity to celebrate the success of fair-trade in the Oak Park community!
