About the Project:
Cochas Chico, a small farming community nestled In the Andean mountains of Huancayo Peru, is home to a rich tradition of gourd carving. It's also home to Esperanza and Raquel, two women who have established small fair-trade businesses to help their community.
"This craft we inherited from our ancestors, grand parents, and parents to the present. Each generation improves the art and it continues to grow with future generations."
