See Minga Like Never Before
At our Open House, you’ll be able to get hands on with products, talk with us at length, and get advice from your retail counterparts from around the country.
Browse Our Warehouse
We have more than 2000 SKUs – that’s too many to market! Find just what you’re looking for, and even what you didn’t know you needed.
Create Your Very Own Products
We work with artisans and retailers all year long to create new products that benefit us all – though we typically do it over the phone. Join us for a few creatively crazed days, talking, drawing, and designing in real time.

What Attendees Think
“Some of my favorite moments at the Open House are just meeting with other fair trade retailers, getting to talk to them, see what's selling their store, how it's selling .”
amanda, Work of Our Hands
"We were able to pick out the colors and patterns we preferred, and of course save with a lot of the special Open House prices. It was fun meeting the staff and being able to browse through the warehouse, sometimes spotting things we hadn't seen online.”
ruth, Just Fare
“The Open House was great. At the end of it, we would have these huge orders, and we'd jam the van full of it and off we'd go back to St. Louis”
