4ABOUT PRODUCTS
- SOAP - Olive Oil Soap Sindyanna olive-oil soap is
made in the West Bank city of Nablus according to
traditional techniques. - BASKETS - The Sindyanna baskets are made with
palm fronds to reproduce traditional Arab
basketry, which was based on olive and mastic
branches. The fronds are especially strong and
durable. Revival of the commercial production of
basketry is a niche for jobless Arab women. - OLIVE OIL - Sindyanna's olive oil is Extra
Virgin, produced in a cold press. - CAROB SYRUP - It is made in Galilee using
traditional methods. - ZAATAR - This is the hyssop of the Bible, also
known as Syrian marjoram. We buy the za'atar from
the Women's Cooperative for Cultivation and
Production in the West Bank city of Jenin.
5- At the village of Kfar Manda, in May 2007,
Sindyanna of Galilee opened its first basketry
workshop under the supervision of artist and
teacher Ronit Pan. Its six members had earlier
taken part in two weaving courses. The new
workshop is intended to train women to meet a
high standard in basketry. The project will
proceed on a trial basis until September. If it
succeeds, the women will then start working for
Sindyanna, producing baskets for the local and
international market.
6Sindyanna is a Fair Trade program that respects

relations with farmers the conditions of its
plant's operation are very good, and its earnings
