Uttarakhand has seen mass migration and most of the villages are either uninhabited or full of old men, women and children as male members have moved to cities in search of jobs. Though these families have small farms they don’t do farming as animals destroys their crops. 80% of the farmers have left farming in the hills of Uttarakhand.

We want to change this problem in an opportunity for these people. Though logistics is very hard, due to unmaintained mountain roads traveling to the nearest market or city is a nightmare. Practically no industry exists in these mountains. We travelled to dozens of remote mountains, trained these great women in their traditional craft of weaving, sewing, accessory making and provide them jobs and above all an identity.
We have created a value chain and involved hundreds of women in farming (hemp farming is less labour intensive) , retting of hemp plants, degumming, carding, sewing, handlooms etc. We believe that women are like the roots of the tress, if you empower a woman she will empower an entire community around her. We train them in marketing, quality control etc. and give them platform to sell their products at fair price.
Every inch of fabric or clothing on these pages comes from beautiful remote Himalayan villages of Uttarakhand, India made by love and care by these hard working women. These women from mountains are already very beautiful in appearance and at heart but now they are making the world a better place by promoting the most sustainable plant on earth.
With every purchase on this website, you spread love and lessen your carbon footprint.

Hemp Fiber Facts
Hemp fibers have been in human use for close to 10,000 years. It is a versatile and fully biodegradable fiber with multiple uses. Recent concerns with environmental degradation have brought hemp fibers back into focus and newer uses are emerging.
Hemp for fiber use is planted closely together to grow tall and slender with hardly any branches. Typically harvested as the seeds start coming, hemp stalks are left in the field for retting. Natural decay breaks the hurds and softens the bast fibers. A decorticator machine separates the bast fibers from the hurds.
The most popular use of hemp fibers is in the textile industry. With rising awareness about the environmental costs of synthetic clothes and cotton, people have started proactively looking for more eco-friendly fabrics. Hemp fibers, used widely for clothing since ancient times, has emerged as one of the favorites.
Hemp bast fibers yield a wide range of fabrics. You can check out our spectrum of hemp fabrics. Other uses of hemp fibers include making ropes and twines, sails, and fine quality paper.

What is Special about Hemp Fibers from Rudraprayag?
Quite a few things, as it happens. First of all, you get fibers from hemp grown 100% organically. Uttarakhand is one of the handfuls of places around the world that has banned the agricultural use of fertilizers and other chemicals. We also have organic certification.
Rudraprayag – where we grow most of our hemp – has just the right kind of soil and climate for hemp to grow naturally. The mineral-rich soil nurtures our plants to be strong and healthy. Fallen leaves and the feces of grazing domesticated animals provide all the additional nutrition they need.
Hemp cultivation has been natural to the farmers in the region. The farming wisdom handed down generations ensures that the plants are of the best quality. We combine modern know-how only to further enhance the quality of the fibers.
SOCIAL IMPACT
Poverty and hunger ruled the farming families of Rudraprayag before Ukhi connected their products to the growing global market for hemp. High seasonal migration in search of work disrupted family life and the natural social fabric of the region.
When you buy bulk hemp fibers from us, you save farming families in Rudraprayag from starving. You contribute to their children going to school. You facilitate the survival of the natural community rhythm of these hilly people.
GENDER JUSTICE
Women in the mountains do almost everything their menfolk do. With just one difference. Men carry loads for earning an income. Women carry loads as part of their unpaid household chores. Men travel on foot across distances guiding tourists against a payment. Women do that to collect fuel and fodder.
Strongly committed to the values of gender justice, Ukhi involves women in all suitable initiatives. Women’s labor is no longer limited to just unpaid care work for the family. Women of Rudraprayag are evolving as income-earners and gaining a voice in the process.
THE MATCHLESS HIMALAYAN TERRAIN
A visit to Rudraprayag has a therapeutic effect on jagged nerves. Snow peaks of the imposing Himalayas cover parts of the district while lush greenery greets you in the less elevated areas.
River Alakananda meets River Mandakini at Rudraprayag. Two dancing, gurgling, enchanting mountain rivers keep visitors enthralled in the beauty of their joyous union. Our hemp plants grow in the greener parts of the district, nourished by these rivers and the natural minerals of the Himalayan soil.
Frequently Asked Questions
We take the utmost care to eliminate all unnecessary delays in delivery. We have efficient logistical partnerships to smoothen the delivery process. However, several factors determine how long it will take for your bulk hemp fiber consignment to reach you. Which part of the world you are ordering from is a factor as the distance to be covered from Rudraprayag in Uttarakhand, India, will vary accordingly. Transport connectivity is another factor. Not just from point to point transfer by water or air, but land travel inside your country. The method of delivery you choose also influences the time taken. Shipping by water naturally takes considerably longer than sending by air. However, we have expedited delivery options in case of urgency.
Yes, you can. The 2018 Farm Bill has made hemp fiber import legal across the U.S.A. As the leading suppliers of hemp fibers wholesale, we have the necessary license and the logistical capacity to export bulk hemp fibers anywhere in the U.S.
Several factors combine to make us the most preferred partner of eminent hemp importers across the globe for providing hemp fibers wholesale. Our hemp plants grow 100% organically at a geographical location where the use of fertilizers and other agricultural chemicals is prohibited by law. Our fibers are of exceptional quality as our plants grow in the naturally mineral-rich soil of the Himalayas, with fallen foliage and animal dung providing additional nutrients. The traditional wisdom of the local farmers adds to the health of our plants. We follow natural processes for separating the bast fibers from the hurds to the extent possible, minimizing chemical use. However, there is strong quality control at every step. We have lab reports and quality certifications as testimonies to our claims. Our superlative logistical capabilities ensure seamless delivery within the minimum possible time.
There is no legal binding on the quantity for bulk purchases. However, a minimum quantity of 100 kilograms of fibers makes it a cost-effective order for hemp fibers wholesale. In case you want to buy only a small quantity, we can help you connect with retailers who buy bulk hemp fibers from us. You’ll still get the best quality hemp fibers if you buy from them.
We use decorticators for separating the bast fibers from the hemp hurds after retting the stalks naturally. The decorticated fibers then get softened through the use of rollers. There are special cutting machines to reduce the size of the long fibers. The shortened fibers then get combed for removing any woody residues using hackling machines. Then spinning machines turn the fibers into yarns if necessary. If you need unspun hemp fibers wholesale, they are ready after hackling.
Hemp fibers have the highest tensile strength among all the natural fibers. Our hemp fibers are especially strong as our plants grow organically in a soil that is rich with minerals. Lab reports will inform you about the exact strength of our fibers.
Hemp fibers have a long history of being used to make ropes and twines. In fact, the U.S. government lifted the ban on hemp production when America joined the Second World War. A documentary named “Hemp for Victory” urges American farmers to grow hemp as a patriotic duty. The U.S. needed hemp fibers to make anchoring ropes for its warships, but Japan had effectively cut out all supply routes. Hence the call to farmers to produce hemp fibers as part of the country’s war efforts.
