In the face of the climate crisis and global pandemic, farmers around the world play a vital - but often forgotten - role in feeding our families. This World Fair Trade Day, Shared Interest wants to bring the fascinating stories of farmers into our homes, so that children can learn more about where their food originates.

Fair trade provides a fantastic way to introduce young children to this concept and Shared Interest has created The Little Book of Fairness to help us on our way, with an interactive board game and stickers included.

To receive your free copy, email [email protected], or visit Shared Interest’s website to meet Captain Cocoa, the superfruit cocoa pod. Travel with her as she meets farmers in Africa and South America, who grow the cocoa we use in so many different ways. Find out more here
