===============

Blakes dark Fairtrade chocolate in stock  in the Natural Way - they are phasing out Green and Blacks because they are now owned by Cadburys. Blakes dark chocolate is delicious - I tried it last night.Why don't you try it next time you shop.

Our renewal documents have been sent off. It seems amazing that it is already a year since we first gained Fairtrade status. We have been able to report good progress this year. Thank you everyone.
