Each year, Peninsula United Church participates in the sale of fair-trade Palestinian products as part of our commitment to economic justice and global solidarity.
At our annual Advent sale, we offer high-quality, ethically sourced items such as:
Fair-trade Palestinian Olive Oil – a symbol of peace and resilience, produced by small-scale farmers
Za’atar Spice Mix – a traditional Middle Eastern blend, handcrafted with care
These sales not only support Palestinian producers and sustainable farming practices, but also help fund our own global outreach efforts. In a recent campaign, proceeds from the sale of olive oil and za’atar raised over $230 for our El Salvador/Tierra Nueva fund, supporting vital initiatives abroad.
Choosing fair-trade products ensures that farmers and artisans are paid fairly for their work, encourages environmentally responsible practices, and promotes peace and dignity in regions affected by conflict and injustice.
