Tierra y Mano is a lifestyle brand that partners with female artisans in Latin America to create handcrafted, one of a kind pieces. We collaborate with artisans in the design process and help them reach a larger audience. We are grounded in the mission of empowering women and supporting traditional arts and crafts made in the Americas. Every product we offer is handmade by artisans who are paid fair wages. It is our goal to follow each product back to its source to ensure Tierra y Mano’s impact is regenerative to the earth. We will never participate in production methods that degrade soil, deplete resources, pollute the air and water, or harm our health. Over time, we hope our work will enrich the lives of everyone involved in our story, from farmer, to artisan, to you, our customer.
