ALL will be fair at this week's Egremont market.

The regular farmers' market will inclue a special Fair Trade event on Friday.

Organisers say the event will give customers the chance to buy food from local suppliers, which is good for the planet as it reduces the carbon footprint of what you buy.

Deb Lee, one of the organisers said: "There will also beautiful and varied crafts made by local Cumbrians.   

"For this special event you can taste Fair Trade food, take part in a Fair Trade tombola, quiz and raffle with some fantastic Fair Trade prizes, hampers, Easter eggs and donations from local businesses."

Cutomers can also find out about the difference Fair trade makes to the farmers and how it helps them counter the bad effects of limate change  to cope with extreme weather, flooding and drought..  

The Fair Trade stall makes regular donations to the food bank.

Deb said: "Come along and join us and make a positive difference locally and to some of the poorest in the world.
