Local Products fairly traded in Crickhowell

"Think Global - Shop Local"

Local farm produce and other foods, craft goods and artworks bought directly by local outlets and sold in Crickhowell are also fairly traded. While we do not have a Farmers' Market, the town is full of shops selling locally produced foods from small suppliers.

You have a choice when you go shopping, to make a contribution to helping others. The message from all traders is that demand will lead to goods being stocked, so please ask for Fairtrade products
