For almost two decades, Cay has worked with a devoted team of experts in the US and Madagascar to develop Wild Silk production as a form of supplementary income for the Malagasy subsistence farmers that make up SEPALIM, reducing stress on the vital rainforest ecosystems that make Madagascar so unique.
Our team in Madagascar has taken over mask production! After working with our US-based team to develop a plan and pattern for hand-making safe, effective COVID-19 face masks, our Malagasy team is ready to supply our Ta’na’na Silk online market with masks.
Ta'na'na Silk is an online market created by CPALI and SEPALIM to provide an outlet for unique Wild Silk and Raffia products handmade in the rainforests of Madagascar. Our non-spun textiles are produced using a no-kill method that conserves the rainforest without harming silkworms or other species.
