Fair Trade Towns

On Monday, December 8, 2008, the Village Board of Trustees of Ballston Spa passed a resolution in support of Fair Trade. This is quite an accomplishment for our town of approximately 5500 people. More information will be provided shortly regarding what it means to be a Fair Trade Town and where can you shop to find fairly traded items. Thank you Ballston Spa and all of our dedicated Mango Tree customers from the Capital Region that have contributed to this success.
