Glastonbury has announced that they are running Festival’s own Green Traders Awards for the sixth time, with the prestigious gongs awarded by Glastonbury, Greenpeace,The Soil Association, The Fairtrade Foundation and Nationwide Caterers Association (NCASS) to the traders who do the most to help make Glastonbury greener, fairer and more sustainable.
Greenpeace volunteers proactively cover the Festival site interviewing traders, quizzing them about everything from how they arrived on site to what their stall was made of, how much of their stock was Fairtrade, organic or recycled, and any other ethical criteria used to reduce their impact on the environment.
