I already mentioned in an earlier post that Jay and I are involved in making our town -- which is already officially designated as Fair Trade -- a single use plastic bag free one. The Plastic Bag Free Town initiative will be launched on Saturday May 9th at the Fair Trade Fair in Wakefield, Quebec, and for the occasion a "fair trade" fashion show will be presented. Jay was recruited as one of the models. He is featured this week on our local newspaper The Low Down. You can see him this week only by clicking here. We are hoping to raise awareness about the dangers to health and the environment of plastic bags, but also the importance of buying under the fair trade logo.
We will tell you more about the event soon!
