Today, Lia takes you through what direct trade means (and doesn't), as well as its relationship to fair trade. She'll talk about how they're sort of like cousins, and how direct trade is, like, almost exactly like goat's milk. (No, seriously!) Lia also makes an announcement that things are going to be changing around here! Mostly, you can now expect weekly (rather than daily) episodes that are a little more in-depth.
