Well done to Dunnes Stores, who have re-introduced Fairtrade bananas to all their irish stores TODAY ! That also means extra business for Fyffes who supply them. So here's a bunch of their own Fairtrade flowers to celebrate !!

Dublin Fairtrade landmark
For Fairtrade Fortnight, the Bewleys coffee shop in Dublin's Grafton Street was suitably dressed for the occasion. Thousands joined in the banana eating record attempt, and it has now been confirmed that Cadbury's Dairy Milk will go Fairtrade this summer. So, as usual, where pioneers like http://www.divinechocolate.com/ have been boldly going for 10 years, those who should be leading the way end up following like sheep. Happily our god is well known for celebrating the return of one lost sheep out of a hundred to his fold. So we do !

Last chance banana
As Fairtrade Fortnight reaches its climax, a record breaking attempt takes place across europe tomorrow to see if we can eat more Fairtrade bananas than ever before in 24 hours starting at 12 noon. You can sign up at www.fairtrade.ie/gobananas whether its your school, company, family, rugby team etc. Take a photo and upload for the final count !! Definitely worth doing
