The Lancaster, Morecambe and District Fairtrade group are staging an event this weekend as part of Fairtrade Fortnight.
The mayor, Councillor Margaret Patterson, will be attending the group’s craft fayre and tea party on Saturday (October 4), at The Cornerstone, Lancaster.
The focus of this event will be to raise awareness about the importance of buying fair trade tea.
There will be fair trade tea tasting, fair trade biscuits, and a talk about fair trade tea.
The Global Village Café will be serving food from noon until 2pm, there will be craft stalls to browse, games to play and even the opportunity to dress up as a fair trade banana.
Recently the group were excited to meet with the mayor, as the group chatted to her about fair trade products and explained the history of Lancaster becoming a fairtrade district.
The group also presented the mayor with a goodie bag full of fairtrade produce.
