Berkeley’s Fair Trade Status Celebrated

By EastBayExpress Archives

Iconic Berkeley clown Wavy Gravy is famous for many things: for being an instrumental figure at Woodstock, for being mentioned in The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, for co-founding the circus and performing-arts Camp Winnarainbow and co-founding the Seva Foundation, which brings healthcare to underserved communities worldwide, and for having a Ben & Jerry’s ice-cream flavor named after him. (Sales of ice cream in that nutty flavor, produced until 2003, helped support Camp Winnarainbow scholarships for low-income kids.)
