Canaan Fair Trade Estate Olive Oil Blend
Quality with a conscience.
user ratingMonday, July 25, 2011
Get your hands on it when you can—Canaan’s Estate Olive Blend olive oil sells out fast, and often. The newest addition to a line of gourmet olive oils, Estate is cold-pressed and processed in small batches, using olives grown from thousand-year-old trees in the Mediterranean. Partnered with the Palestine Fair Trade Association, Canaan Fair Trade sources it line of products from 1,700 small farmers comprising a network of nearly 50 cooperatives. With organic and Fair Trade certification, you get quality products with a conscience: The organization supports women’s cooperatives, funds scholarships for Palestinian youths and supplies micro-loans to poorer members of communities to learn to farm as well as trees to farmers whose lands have been devastated by war or natural disasters. —Eva Meszaros
