SUPPORTING WOMEN AROUND THE GLOBE
Coming to Greeneville Farmers Market July 11 and July 18, 9 am to 1 pm. ,ESTROG.
Fair trade for women around the globe. Below is a little history of Estrog written by the founder Yvette Davidson.
History
After 27 years owning a small chain of boutiques, Ahead of Our Time, I have decided to go into fair trading with women throughout the world in oppressed areas. Through home parties, markets, festivals and events Estrog will bring awareness and product to the interested consumer. Estrog strives to bring awareness to female oppression throughout the world. The hope is to bring a voice to women and girls to help change the structure of economy and politics.
A big part of ESTROG’s business is participating in events up and down the east coast.
Know your product, help her community.
When you buy Fair Trade, you not only support an impoverished woman, you support her family and community. Sustainability worldwide is ESTROG’s hope and dream.
COME OUT AND SHOW YOUR SUPPORT FOR WOMEN AROUND THE GLOBE.
