Visiting an artisan's workshop allows you to go behind the scenes and actually speak to someone who lives, breathes, and works in the location you are visiting. It opens a window to the community, its lifestyle, economy, history and culture - in essence, it lets you peek into the soul of the community. Watching a product be transformed from raw materials to high quality uniquely-made craft or agri-food product gives you a memory to take away from this encounter.
Each product tells a story.
