I checked out the link and will do more research. I currently sit on the environmental plan-it committee for the city that I live in. This information may be important for future plans and relevant business committees as well. Thanks for the info. Josie 3 Clothing This is the first that I have heard of a fair trade town status.

I have been browsing on the site today and wanted to comment on the fact that there is more to fair trade than just bananas, coffee and chocolate. I have recently gone onto All Things Green and a few other Eco-friendly directories and have been amazed at how many great companies there are selling fashionable and affordable fair trade gifts! I was especially drawn by one company, BoBelle, who have the most gorgeous handbags! They are made out of eel skin which is a by-product of the food industry in Korea. The colours are so vibrant and I was delighted with my order! Free gift wrapping and everything! It makes shopping in the high street at TopShop to be very dull... I am trying to source 'green' cleaning products, does anyone have any recommendations? Thanks! Rachel Hello all,
