About Village Goods
Village Goods is a volunteer supported not-for-profit social enterprise. We have been in Edmonton since 1986, first as a part of Ten Thousand Villages Canada, now independent. We are owned and operated by the Edmonton Ten Thousand Villages Society, and we are proud members of the Fair Trade Federation. 

We aim: 
  • To seek to bring justice, hope and peace to the poor though trade with artisan and producer groups who pay fair wages and demonstrate concern for their members’ welfare
  • To seek to increase local market share for fairly trade products
  • To market products that reflect and reinforce rich cultural traditions, that are environmentally sensitive, and which appeal to local consumers
  • To encourage our customer to learn about fair trade and to appreciate artisans’ cultural heritage
