This year more so than ever, mothers (and all parents) deserve to be recognized for how they’ve gone above and beyond, often becoming homeschool teachers, recreation leaders and schedule keepers, all while balancing working and trying to maintain their own health and wellness.

Beautiful breakfast in bed including all Fairtrade certified items like granola, tea, coffee, cotton sheets, vanilla and of course - a little chocolate.

Mothers continue to act as unsung heroes as they continue to hold down the family, working harder to keep everyone sane and safe. We’re excited to announce we’ve partnered with six Fairtrade certified brands to make this Mother’s Day more meaningful.

We’ve teamed up with six sustainable brands, Lily’s SweetsOrganic IndiaEthical Bean CoffeeNielsen-Massey VanillasLove Crunch and Looma Home, all of whom are Fairtrade certified, in order to honor mothers with a Meaningful Mother’s Day giveaway.

  • Looma Home Signature Organic Sheet Set – Give mom the gift of a cozy and restful night’s sleep!

Our mission is to secure decent working conditions, fair prices, and better terms of trade to empower producers and ultimately improve their social, environmental and economic stability. We achieve this mission, in part, by encouraging shoppers interested in ethically and sustainably sourced products to vote with their dollars for Fairtrade certified products this Mother’s Day in purchasing sustainable gifts for mom.

We hope you’ll join and share in our mission to honor moms by showing your support for a more meaningful Mother’s Day.
