At Sana Jardin, we're committed to empowering communities, preserving traditional craftsmanship, and supporting women artisans. As part of our ongoing mission to promote sustainable luxury, we’re excited to announce our partnership with Nest to expand to five new inspiring cooperatives in Morocco. Each of these cooperatives plays a crucial role in empowering women, preserving their heritage, and bringing beautiful, handcrafted products to the world.

🌿 Natural Color Cooperative Angouan (Ait Ourir)
Creating stunning, naturally dyed textiles and weavings while embracing eco-friendly practices.
🌿 Coopérative Artisanale Ifassen (Tahanout)
