A Fair Trade Gift Store and Coffee Shop
5852 Washington Blvd | Arlington, VA
Trade Roots is a niche gift store and coffee shop in the heart of the Westover neighborhood. They stock fair-trade products, meaning these companies and brands support the 9 fair trade principles. These principles include fair wages, safe and empowering work conditions, ensuring the rights of children, creating opportunity, cultivating environmental stewardship, and respecting cultural identity.
It’s a wonderful place to just browse special things for your home or a one-of-a-kind, hand-crafted gift. Everyone who works there is always so helpful when searching for a perfect selection for a special someone, no matter what age. They have beautiful kitchen towels hand-woven in India, kitchen utensils made in Guatemala from reclaimed wood, trivets of colorful felt from Nepal, and baby-soft rattles made in Bangladesh. The list goes on!
Want another great reason to stop by? WINE! They now have a small, carefully curated selection of wines for your fall happy hours. The new fall season hours are in full swing: Sun-Wed 10 am-8 pm, Thurs-Sat 10 am-9:30 pm. This is the perfect spot to unwind on your own or connect with a friend.
