INSTEAD OF just selling stylish but cheap kitchenware and low-cost underwear, Target is now offering fair-trade certified wine. This month, Target introduced its "Wandering Grape" collection, a set of certified fair-trade wines. Buying certified fair trade wines ensures that the producers were paid a living wage and that the grapes were grown using environmentally sustainable practices.
