Alma de Añil means “Alma of the Indigo,” aptly named for the proprietor and her favorite dye material. Indigo was one of the major crops in El Salvador before the introduction of artificial dyes in the late 19th century when the entire economy began to collapse and switch to coffee. Today, there's a resurgence in indigo, and Alma’s business is one of the leaders, growing organic indigo on a farm outside Santa Ana, then harvesting and processing the indigo to brew the distinctive blue dye. Utilizing techniques that date back to pre-Spanish occupation, the indigo artisans dye textiles into exciting and beautiful patterns. Alma de Añil employs members of 10 families to tend the indigo crops and complete the crafting process, and provides them with gardening space on the farm for their own food crops as well. 

 

The people of El Salvador are among the most generous and determined you'll find anywhere. Emerging from a civil war, they are striving to improve their daily lives and rebuild their ravaged country. Revy works with individuals and co-ops to help them earn a living wage and provide a brighter future for themselves and their children.
