About me

Gender Female
Occupation Fair and Alternative Trade
Location East Windsor, New Jersey, United States
Introduction The One Eyed Turtle promotes the basic principles of Fair Trade by showcasing work from small artisan groups. By purchasing something that is made in decent surroundings, with community involvement, and for a fair price is a win for the buyer and the seller. As that buyer you become part of the "fair and ethical" circle. As fair trade business owners we are always enlightened by the story behind the product. We are excited to actually "see" the artisan with their big smiles and happy to be working towards a better future for themselves and especially for their families.
Interests Reading and Research about the culture and customs of many of the countries which inspire my business. Talking with and meeting new people. Recycling, re-using and repurpose-ing materials
Favorite Movies Informative and fun. Do not like violence and horror.
Favorite Music Light jazz, spa sounds, folk, pop, world
Favorite Books Too many to list here. Generally love to read about other cultures, like to read all I can about places I would love to visit.
