Vetiver Craft Training Workshop May–June 2025

Many hands, new and old, were in the grass during this vetiver craft training workshop and we loved to see it! Our Vetiver Heritage Centre in Troumaca hosted this cohort of farmer/crafters from May 13 to June 6, 2025. Prior to the start of the workshop, the vetiver grass was cut, cleaned and left to air/sun dry in preparation for our trainees to be able to work the grass into plaited ropes for crafting. You might recognize some familiar faces amongst the group. We hear from North Leeward farmers Fareeda Nanton, Everley Herbert and Felicia Wickham as they share their experience thus far of working with vetiver grass on their farms and as a craft material. It’s been very rewarding to see their commitment to learning new things and improving their skills, as well as witnessing their growth along this vetiver journey. We’re so blessed to be a part of this growing Vetiver Heritage Family as we give this knowledge back to the community and its members. 🌱 ---- Hand2Earth’s May/June 2025 vetiver craft training workshop was delivered as part of our GEF Assembly Challenge Program project titled Upscaling Vetiver Systems for Sustainable Farmland Recovery and is funded by GEF and UNIDO. #vetivergrass #handcraft #stvincentandthegrenadines
