Just off the highway, roughly half way between Cochin (Kochi) and Allepey, you'll find a small factory on the side of the road which produces yarn and twine. Visitors are welcome to stop in to explore from begining to end, as the twine is produced from coconut husks, almost entirely by hand or food powered machines. If you're daring enough, you can even try it yourself, with a guided hand of course. Purchasing any of their products will of course help maintain their livelihood, and ensure this road side factory has a prosperous future.
