Your Morning Cup of Fair Trade

A recent visitor to the ghia blog wanted to know where to find fair trade coffee in Nashville, suggesting that making your daily caffeine fix fair trade is a great way to support the movement.

One way to find fair trade coffee in your area is use the search tool on Transfair USA's web site. Their list is not comprehensive, but it is a good start. You can also search for places that sell fair trade tea, sugar, cocoa, fruit, and rice.

When I searched for Nashville, Tennessee, I found the following places listed:
Bongo Java
Produce Place
Provence
Wild Oats
Ten Thousand Villages (they don't actually serve coffee, just sell it)

Additionally, Dunkin' Donuts has fair trade coffee, and local stops Sip and Sweet 16th sell Drew's Brews, a Nashville-based brand with a few fair trade blends. And of course, the ubiquitous Starbucks has a few fair trade offerings as well.
