Taller Maya is a collective Mexican design brand formed by a multidisciplinary creative team that collaborates with artisanal social enterprises established in the Yucatan Peninsula to promote the development of their communities. It was founded in 2002 in response to an initiative to recover traditional Mayan techniques through a training program led by the Fundación Haciendas del Mundo Maya (FHMM), which resulted in community self-management and business management projects. Traspatio Maya is a brand representing a network of rural producers established in the Yucatan Peninsula, dedicated to the sustainable production of salts, honeys, corn, and vegetables.
