La Mesa, CA, a Fair Trade Town

SDFT had a great turn out at Toma Sol Cafe on September 9th! Everyone enjoyed the food and drinks during the happy hour.  The talk of the evening included La Mesa Fair Trade and their progress with their city council, the upcoming celebration of USD declaration on Tuesday, 9/18, the FT fashion show sponsored by SDFT and the La Mesa Gift Fair.    Lucia Ruth represented Malia Designs and brought samples for us to check out.
