We're in the national foodie corner today with Fairtrade news Birmingham, coffee news from Newport, wine news from Hampshire and fishy news from the Shetlands.
Fairtrade fun in Birmingham
The Fairtrade Tour Bus has now reached Birmingham, and visitors can experience the same kind of fun as we did at the Fairtrade Fortnight Fairground event. There'll be Banana Performers, African Singers, Latin American Dancers. Most excitingly, banana-grower Gideon Gilbert from the Windward Islands will be there to give his side of the Fairtrade story.
Fair coffee for bird fans
When Newport Wetland Centre reopens its doors on Sunday, visitors will be able to enjoy Best Coffee Beans' organic, Fairtrade and Rainforest Alliance-certified coffee at the Environmental Education and Visitor Centre. Lucky them.
Waitrose's English vino
The good news is that Waitrose has just announced it's going to plant its own vines on its own 4,000-acre Leckford Estate in Hampshire. The bad news is that we won't be able to taste the English elixir until 2014.
No Catch in trouble
We're sad to hear that soon we might not be able to buy our favourite sustainable fish fingers, No Catch. It has been reported than that Johnson Seafarms, the ethical, organic cod farm, is in crisis and has run up a £40m debt. C'mon fish-eaters, let's support the ethical sources.
