what brands of coffee are out there that are Fair Trade - is Yuba one brand?
I live above Peter's Porto Rico coffee in Greenwich Village, which is very popular. But it's pretty ordinary, really. For years now, I've had to schlep off to Park Slope for really great coffee--AND Free Trade--at Leaf and Bean on 7th Ave.
Next trip, I'll try Gorilla!
