I was going to suggest Peet's. While not all its coffee is, they do 
have a line of fair trade coffee.

BTW, Peet's was based in Berkeley, California, back when there was 
only one shop and Mr. Peet (originally a Dutchman) ran the place. I 
remember Mr. Peet from back in 1969 or 70.

Now that Mr. Peet is gone and the company has expanded, they've moved 
a couple miles away, so that the home office and warehouse is a few 
blocks from me in Emeryville - and i live in Oakland, just a few 
blocks from Berkeley.

Peet's is very selective about the quality of their coffees. My 
favorite (not organic, nor fair trade) is called Garuda, a blend of 
Indonesian coffees, low in acid and rich in body, with earthy and 
spicy notes.

Peet's fair trade coffee (which may be organic, i forget) is called Gaia.
