Over 400 people attended the annual La Mesa Fair Trade Gift Faire.  It was great to see so many people support fair trade.  Students from the local school interviewed vendors and the fifth grade class at St. Martin of Tour Academy hosted the bake sale which included fair trade products.  Cafe Moto hosted the coffee and even their sugar was fair trade!
