Fair Trade Los Angeles

One of FTLA’s very first events was a visit from JJ Keki and Seth Jonadev, two coffee farmers from the Mirembe Kawomera co-op in Uganda. In addition to the community benefits of organizing and producing FT coffee, the co-op brings together Jewish, Muslim, and Christian farmers. And Mirembe Kawomera? It means Delicious Peace.

Check out the video above, a sneak peek at an upcoming documentary on the co-op. And you can find Mirembe Kawomera coffee at Thanksgiving Coffee. (Plus look for more on both the film and the coffee at our Just Lives Festival coming September 30 to the Hollywood Farmers Market!)
