Fairtrade Fortnight in Sidmouth > local breakfast and local afternoon tea > Sunday 4th March

We are now halfway through the Fairtrade Fortnight:
Futures Forum: Fairtrade Fortnight in Sidmouth > 26th Feb - 11th March

This is from the latest press release, giving a little more info:

Sidmouth has been a Fairtrade Town for just over a year (in  August  2016 we received our certificate) although Devon has been a Fairtrade County for over 10 years.
It is the second year that Growers have visited Sidmouth College - last year Isaac , a Cocoa farmer from Ghana  and this year Victor and Esther Tea growers  from Kenya and Sidmouth Primary School held a Fairtrade poster competition as well as an Assembly  about Fairtrade.
The Churches  and Sidmouth Library have been involved with Fairtrade for many years and ‘Sidmouth Fair Trade Group’  was formed in 2014  to try to expand community involvement.
We were delighted when the Town Council repainted the ‘Welcome to Sidmouth ‘ boards and added that we are ‘A Fairtrade Town’
We have a place on the town website and a Facebook page.
We also have a Banner up on the sea front during Fairtrade Fortnight.

And here's some info about tomorrow's big events:

Our next events include a Community 'Fairtrade and Local Breakfast' on Sunday March 4th
