About Us

Fair Trade at First Congregational Church Palo Alto is a ministry of the Outreach Board. We partner with Boston-based Equal Exchange to source the products we sell. Equal Exchange helps keep small independent farmers and co-ops as an active part of the world agricultural marketplace, allowing them to earn fair, stable incomes that are not available through multinational agribusiness corporations. We hope you will support independent farmers and co-ops to the greatest extent possible, while enjoying delicious, value-priced, organic foods.

We gather as a church, welcoming people of all abilities, backgrounds, ethnicities, and those who are LGBTQ+, to become more aware of the love of God in our lives and to make real that love in the world through worshiping, serving humanity, and seeking to follow in the ways of Jesus.
