Looking for greener ways to celebrate Easter from jelly beans (don't choke on them) made without high fructose corn syrup to organic-fair trade (and sensibly packaged) chocolates and ended up slipping on a banana…sort of…
Visiting Equal Exchange for their latest chocolate news, i found out that they also sell bananas from El Guabo in Ecuador and Cepibo in Peru.
They declared March Equal Exchange Banana Month and explain why in All bananas are not created equal by Jessica Jones-Hughes.
Besides dressing like a banana, an easy thing to do is read The True Cost of Bananas (Small Farmers, Big Change…June 7, 2011) by Phillis Robinson and get a bit more knowledge on the topic.
Slipping on bananas, sort of for Green Day # 246
