why we love this company:
Jamtown is a musical place that's not on any map. It's a place you visit when you play live rhythm with your friends; a subtle reminder of the common bond shared by all people. And it's as accessible today as it was thousands of years ago.

This is Jamtown's John's tenth year in business after leaving the corporate world! Basically, he is an adventure/traveller choosing to work directly with producer groups, and these are usually extended families. Jamtown's goal is to sustain long-term trading relationships to create economic stability. With your help, they provide critical support to these low-income families through fair wages in the local context and other valuable assistance. Most that John has met convey a love for their work and a gentle approach to life. There is a big reason why Jamtown does what they do. They gain critical perspective on our own culture by visiting their very different cultures.
