I love that I can pick up fair trade coffee right in Evanston at this great little shop. The gift selection is great, and the women who manage the store are really mission driven.

This place sells Craftsman ware from villages around the world. I bought a stone sculpted people group sitting around a campfire. Perfect gift for my men's weekend. This is a fair trade company and is the other end of my friends projects, for example in Africa, wHere they helped village people create marketing for the exact gifts that 10,000 villages sells. The store leans more toward women's style gifts but is working to find things men would appreciate. For example drums, chimes, and more Stone sculpture. Overall, this place is a delight.

New location on Chicago Ave., in Evanston but still wonderful items and gifts. Helpful staff who even nicely tied ribbons on the fair trade gifts I bought. My friends all loved the necklaces and soaps. If you are looking for gifts from the heart this is the place to go. Thank you!

Great concept, but in my opinion, too pricey, and poor customer service

I came in looking for last minute Christmas gifts and was instantly greeted warmly and told to ask if I needed anything. All of the women working were really nice and helpful, one woman in particular (I wish I had gotten her name!) helped me pick out some goodies for my family. I love knowing everything is fair trade and there are so many cool unique gifts to browse through! They have the most gorgeous quilled cards if you're looking for something extra special. I'll be back!

Looking for something unique? Shop with your heart at TTV Evanston. The staff is exceptional and the the choices are endless. Jewelry, home decor, coffee/tea, chocolate - you can't go wrong here! And don't worry about quality - they've sourced superior artisans from around the globe. Highly recommended.
