Red Persimmon
is all about Freedom...

Everyone has his or her own definition of freedom. Red Persimmon embraces freedom by owning a socially conscious business, working as an artist and designer, teaching, traveling and volunteering.

By our offering and you purchasing fairly traded products,  we are doing something very tangible to make our world a better place. Thank you for joining us — Katrina & Jenny

The Joy of South India Tour
February 25 - March 7, 2018

Travel down the south eastern coast on the Bay of Bengal to see a single temple carved from one rock; stay in a charming French colonial town and visit the workshops of an artist's colony. Move inland to experience Chettinad architecture, a famous temple and stay two days sharing life with the women of Blue Mango Trust, an income generation program for village women. Touch the clouds in the hill stations of Periyar and Munnar, touring tea and spice plantations then go over the Cardamom Hills down to Kochi where we will tour the backwaters by boat. Join me!  Red Persimmon Travels

Blue Mango Trust is an Income Generation Program for disadvantaged village women in South India. Red Persimmon and Blue Mango have been working together since 2001. Many of you have enjoyed purchasing the products hand made there.
