We began history with natural fibers. Cotton, jute, hemp and more. Today we have created materials stronger and longer lasting but sometimes the old fashioned way is best. I wanted this page to remind us that nature creates things that help us still and will continue to help us for all time.

Jute- is a strong, coarse natural fiber used for making burlap, gunny, floor coverings, and ropes. Two annual plants in the linden family ( Tiliaceae) from India, Cochorus capsularis (white) and C. olitorius (tossa) are the sources for jute fiber.
