Happy Holidays! We're just back from Vietnam and Laos, our second trip since the pandemic restrictions were lifted, and it's obvious that the West has returned to "normal" much more quickly than the developing world. Though we are filled with optimism, it's going to take longer for many makers to get back to their craft. We are encouraging them to do so by ordering more than ever. And the strong US Dollar allows us to pass savings on to you!

The pandemic was economically devastating for most of the groups we work with, because of the loss of tourism mainly, and many individual artisans had to return to farming to survive. With your help we will be able to make up for lost time.

Wooven supports the work of traditional craft artisans in Vietnam, Laos and the region to minimize environmental impact, foster sustainable development, and raise the collective awareness of ethical consumption.
