The weekend of November 11th is turning out to be a holiday shoppers dream come true right here in Northfield! No fewer than 4 unique shopping venues are scheduled. Our event is an opportunity to shop while supporting good works.

SERRV is a fair trade organization dedicated to lifting disadvantaged artisans, farmers, and their families out of poverty. Our sale will include quality crafts from around the world. There is something for everyone on your gift list- or for your self. Come browse, enjoy a hot or cold beverage or sit and enjoy a bowl of soup, bread, beverage and dessert lunch to fuel you for the rest of your shopping tour of Northfield.

Upendo Mmoja is a grassroots organization located in rural Pommerin Tanzania, East Africa. Norwich University Rotaract has been working with Upendo for four years to build a Residential and Vocational Training Center for orphaned youth. We have built the main Center, the kitchen, and the barn. We are fundraising currently for the carpentry and craft workshop. We will be selling handmade goods from Tanzania such as bags, baskets, and mats. All proceeds will go to Upendo Mmoja to help with purchasing the materials needed to start the carpentry and craft workshop.
