The Health Food Center, in SW OKC, has a section of fair trade items. This is a purse purchased there; it is made in Nepal from pieces of silk. In the autumn, there is also a fair trade market, with cultural awareness activities, called World Fest. It is sponsored by World Neighbors, a charity with headquarters here locally. It's nice to see little ripples of awareness.
