Free Webinar with Double Spiral Chocolate
I just discovered that we have a fair trade bean to bar chocolate company that is only 20 minutes from Media and we will meet virtually with the makers to learn about it. This will be Wednesday March 4 from 7 to 8pm and you can sign up on Eventbrite here. You can also sign up from our website starting next week. Double Spiral chocolate was started by Stuart and Mhairi Craig in the arts and crafts community of Arden DE. They are a scientist and a nurse, and craft these delicious bars for maximum health benefits. How amazing is that? Delicious chocolate that is especially good for you, supports chocolate producer communities, and takes care of our planet by using fairly traded organic cacao that doesn’t allow chopping down forests to grow. Plus, they have a bar with coffee bean bits, which I love but never see, and a mushroom infused one that I am super excited about, as I love foraging and eating local mushrooms! We’ll also discuss “fairwashing,” when usually large companies tout their ethical practices, but when you investigate, you find that they are greatly exaggerating or even outright lying. This is where Fair Trade certification marks can be critical – although Double Spiral doesn’t have any! Bring your questions – this is going to be super informative and fun!
