Berber Woven Items

In the little Berber Sheep Hearding Village, Barb purchased two

Purses and a Rug. The Women have a cooperative and the money

was handed to the correct person while we were there.



Each item had a tag indicating the maker


This is another maker's tag

According to our host, these women have made great strides to help thie family income. We also visited the one room school where the children were attending. In the back of the room the little kids were sitting quietly listening and drawing. May they find peace and prosperity with their activities.

  1. Are their wares available online or through a fair market trade store like Ten Thousand Villages?
