Head & Hands, the NDG Food Depot, and Fair-Trade, Organic Coffee at Co-op La Maison Verte

Here’s an interview I did with Stéphanie Guico, marketing coordinator of NDG’s Co-op La Maison Verte, about the fair-trade, organic coffee fundraising initiative between the co-op and local organization Head and Hands that raised over $800$ over the last month. Their recent craft fair also raised $1,080. Where does all the money go? Towards stocking their community food pantry at Head & Hands, a local charitable organization whose budget was recently cut. Though the fundraiser ended in November, you can still give directly to Head and Hands or the NDG Food Depot, and you can still purchase fair-trade, organic coffee at Co-op La Maison Verte. Stéphanie and I talk about the types of coffee for sale, and more importantly about where it comes from and what the money goes towards supporting at Head and Hands.
