Hi Everyone,
I'm Sarah and I've been running Ethics Trading for just about 5 years now. I started off selling cloth nappies in my spare time and then after maternity leave I simply never went back to work.

The business has changed a lot since then and there is now not a cloth nappy to be seen!

My main product now is the lovely Soap nut. It grows in India and Nepal mainly and each berry is rich in high quality saponins. Yes, soap really does grow on trees! So the soap nut or soap berry is the ultimate in renewable washing resources. They are so incredibly versatile - I use them to clean pretty much everything around the house, including me and my kids.

I'm always on the lookout for new products and ideas and always welcome feedback as long as it's constructive.

They do, and I'm not sure how toxic they might be! I have accidentally tasted one and I didn't die though.
