[Here's the US-wide list of fair trade coffee shops.]

Missouri

Clayton
Northwest Coffee Roasting Company. 2 locations: 8401 Maryland Ave. 314.725.8055. 50 Gay Ave. This Missouri coffee shop offers ONLY one blend of fair trade coffee in their stores: the organic Guatemala. However, I’m including them here because, while visiting, I thought there’s a clear dearth of local, fair trade coffee shops in and around St. Louis, and this sounds like a much better option than most. Tell ‘em you like the Guatemalan coffee, and that you hope they’ll carry more fair trade blends :)
