I am very interested in the work of Organic Exchange n and would like to find out if there is any possibility for me to pursue research, training, short courses or programs at your institution.
I intend to establish in the near future a research unit in Trinidad which will be specialized in providing information to the wider Caribbean on new discoveries in the research and development of eco-textiles and sustainability.
In this regard I would appreciate very much if you can let me know what is possible. I am very willing to provide you with further information.
Kind Regards,
Mario

I have been working with natural fibres in Nepal for a long time now and can supply you with fibre, yarns, textiles, as well as finished goods. Please have a look at www.heavenhemp.co.uk and www.wildweaves.co.uk to get an idea of what we do. I work with hemp, nettle, cactus, banana, bamboo . I also have a small workshop where we make bags, clothing and rugs from natural fibres. Hope to hear from you and would like to be your friend. Take care,
