Deborah Amos: Be honest: When you drop by your local coffeehouse . . . 

Barista: Hi, how are you? 

Amos: . . . do you ever think about the farmers who grew that coffee, thousands of miles away? 

Customer: I need two, let’s see, two venti mocha frappuccinos with whipped cream. 

Amos: When you pay the bill . . . 

Barista: Eight twenty-nine! 

Amos: . . . do you ever wonder, how much of this money will the coffee farmers and their families actually get? 

Barista: What can I get for you? 


Amos: An international network of activists wants you to start thinking about it, because they say they’ve figured out a simple way that you can affect the global economy and transform the lives of farmers: Look for coffee with the special label marked “Fair Trade.” 

With Part 3 in our special report, here’s American RadioWorks correspondent Daniel Zwerdling. 


Daniel Zwerdling: Let’s go right to coffee country. Let’s head to the mountains of Guatemala. They grow some of the best coffee you can drink. It’s late afternoon, the sun’s already sinking behind a peak, and farmers are shuffling back down the slopes after a whole day picking beans. [horse whinnies] Some lead pack horses.
