THE DIFFERENCE YOU MAKE

Supporting local artisans, helping bridge the rural-urban divide and raising awareness for the preservation of the environment are some of the positive outcomes from your visit.

All the talks, workshops and stalls are organised with positive ecological, social and economic impact in mind - the result of painstaking effort by volunteers who have dedicated themselves to the movement.
