IDSS Chief, Erwin Rodriguez (in black) explaining to the active participants of Mahayag, Zamboanga del Sur, the proper way of making the corn husk doll’s head.

 

Eye-catching colourful flowers and glamorous dolls were crafted out of corn husk in the municipalities of Tigbao and Mahayag, respectively.
Each municipality was participated in by Women Empowerment Movement-Rural Improvement Club (WEMRIC), 4H Club members and from academe.
The Corn banner program of the Department of Agriculture (DA) through its Institutional Development Support Services (IDSS) initiated a Hands-on Training for Corn By-products to ensure that corn producing municipality will be able to recycle their corn husk, considered as waste during harvest time. This too is in support to achieving zero waste.
