Tosheka textile is a well known Business located in Wote, Makueni County that deals with processing of silk thread. During this trip, students were able to understand the process of silk farming and how the final product comes to be. Furthermore, the process of dying and threading was also shared with them and they got a chance to make their own. With the final materials, students got an opportunity to weave a small piece using the looming devices at the industry.
