Sisal is a type of agave; it yields a stiff fiber used in making various products.
Sisal are organically grown in a small community in Central Thailand. Leaves are harvested in a sustainable way so the plant continue growing. The villagers then harvest these sisal and leftovers are being used as natural fertilizer for other locally grown crops.

Villagers then use a utilized bamboo, a sharpened bamboo which they used in scratching and thinning the sisal fabric, making it finer and thinner strips and then bring into the sun for drying.
