The Selyn Fair Trade Tour

Discover the Heart of Ethical Craftsmanship in Sri Lanka

Come spend a few hours with us—walk through our workshops, meet the hands behind the craft, and experience how a small idea grew into a community of over 1,000 women and families across Sri Lanka.

The Selyn Fair Trade Tour is not just a tour. It’s an invitation into our world. A world where textiles are more than products—they’re a livelihood, a culture, and a form of everyday resistance to fast fashion and extractive industry.


What you’ll see, feel, and learn

🧶 The Handloom Workshop

Step into the quiet rhythm of weaving. Watch as yarn becomes cloth in the hands of women who’ve kept this tradition alive for generations. Each loom sings a story—of patience, skill, and pride.

🌿 The Natural Dye House

Our colours come from nature—plant-based, safe, and sustainable. Learn how we blend heritage knowledge with innovative processes to dye yarn without polluting our environment or harming our artisans.

🧸 The Toy Workshop

Where leftover handloom fabric finds new life in joyful, handmade toys. You’ll meet the women who bring our softest stories to life—stitched with care, laughter, and love.

🛍️ The Wanduragala Store

A vibrant space filled with sarongs, shawls, homeware, toys, and more—crafted slowly, intentionally, and beautifully. Each piece connects you to the communities behind them.

🌾 Elephant Rock Viewpoint

We’ll end with a pause. A breath of fresh air and a sweeping view of the Kurunegala countryside. Time to reflect, to take it all in, and to feel connected.
