Screw Pine
The screw pine plant is grown mostly by the river side. It is then collected from the people around the area. The makers of screw pine get the raw materials from the locals who have collected it from the river side. People are then trained for a month and later come up with new design as per client requirement.

Rukmini
Rukmini AC and Lalitha AC are twin sisters from the outskirts of Kodungallur, Kerala. Both the sisters are physically challenged and are unable to walk properly. There were times when Rukmini and Lalitha were finding it difficult to earn for their living. The situation changed when they started as helpers at the “Anganwadi” and then moved to our training centre for learning the procedure of weaving products from screw pine fibres as a part time. They now are working with our centre fulltime. Now, both Rukmini and Lalitha are earning their living through screw pine fibres production.
