We've had a lovely Fairtrade Fortnight!
The first ever World Book Night was lots of fun - hopefully it will be an annual event.
We were delighted to meet Ken Mkangala from Malawi on his Producer Tour of Scotland.
Our Open Day on Saturday 12th gave us a chance to talk to Fiona O'Donnell MP about Fairtrade and we look forward to welcoming her back to she shop soon.
Of course, we met lots of customers, old and new, gave out information, free samples, supplied coffee mornings, tuck shops and fayres, and our volunteers gave talks at schools throughout the county.
In the gardens of Orchard Crescent, the crocuses and daffodils are appearing.
The shop itself has had a bit of a spring makeover with a new kitchen for those all important cups of Fairtrade tea and coffee that keep the volunteers happy while pricing stock.
There has been a lot of new stock arriving from India recently. Our gift range is proving very popular so if something takes your fancy, don't leave it too long before you pop in - these papier mache cat boxes are going fast!
