*TAMMACHAT Natural Textiles
is a Nova Scotia-based social enterprise founded to provide
rural women artisans in Thailand and Laos access to
international markets, and to provide people in North America
and Europe greater access to fairly traded, environmentally
friendly products. Our goal is to support and sustain women,
their craft, rural communities and the environment. Our
fashion accessories, home dcor, clothing and fabric blend
contemporary styling with traditional skills. Each piece is
exquisitely handwoven in limited editions and coloured with
sustainably produced, local natural dyes, or certified
low-impact dyes from the EU. For every piece purchased, we
provide a child in Laos with their first book through Big
Brother Mouse (www.bigbrothermouse.com), a
Lao-owned, pioneering publishing venture that makes literacy
fun. www.tammachat.com
A
selection of TAMMACHAT items will be available for
purchase.
