Open doors AlterNativa3: "From cooperative to cooperative".

As every year at AlterNativa3 we give you the opportunity to get to know us and enjoy Fair Trade from a different point of view, from the inside. Day 20 May we organise the open day at Ctra. De Castellar, 526, Terrassa. We have prepared a host of activities and workshops not to be missed.

This year we will count with the presence of Fayrin Suarez and Exolina Aldana, coffee producers and members of the cooperative Augusto Cesar Sandino from Nicaragua.
