Trade Roots
What’s in stock: Fair trade goods that also do good by supporting the artisans who make them. That includes jewelry (we’re loving the colorful kantha-bead necklaces) and all kinds of accessories, from Indiana Jones-style brimmed hats and eco-friendly socks to hand-woven gloves and scarves. Plus a vibrant array of home goods, such as hand-dyed tablecloths, Alpaca blankets from Ecuador, handcrafted holiday ornaments and mobiles, soapstone serving bowls and adorable felted pet beds.
