In early 2021, the Women's Union of Lang Can Town established a traditional brocade weaving group with 6 members in Nam Dip Hamlet, along with a traditional brocade weaving group in Thuong Lam Commune. Unlike the weaving group in Thuong Lam, the weaving group in Lang Can replaced the yarn from wool to thread, the loom has also been improved to be more modern and suitable for new materials.
From an effort to restore the traditional brocade weaving, Lam Binh Brocade Weaving Cooperative was also established with more than 20 members in Thuong Lam, Tho Binh and Lang Can. The biggest desire of the women in the cooperative is that along with preserving the profession, they can create income from this traditional craft.
Currently, Lam Binh District will focus on connecting with a number of enterprises to purchase textile products of the cooperative. At the same time, women in the cooperative has also actively looked for models of some products such as pillowcases, shirts, towels to give as gifts to tourists.
Not fading away like brocade weaving in many localities, forging craft has found a living ground thanks to the efforts of the blacksmith and the way they introduce and promote their products to the market.
Manually forging products of Duc Thang Km 23 forging facility are famous manual forging brands in Ham Yen District. Blacksmith Dinh Lenh Duc is the third generation to follow this profession. He has ceaselessly worked to keep the traditional craft of the family. Not only taking prestige and quality to conquer consumers, he has also set up online stores on e-commerce websites in order to introduce products. Therefore, his family's forging products have been sold both inside and outside the province such as Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, etc.
Besides support policies of the province, the One Commune One Product program is also a driving force for traditional craft villages to improve their products' quality. Many craft villages have been revived from this timely support, including silk production in Tan Long Commune (Yen Son District); brocade weaving in the district of Na Hang, Chiem Hoa, Lam Binh, and Ham Yen; traditional Tay noodle making in Na Hang and Lam Binh districts; tea processing industry in the districts of Na Hang, Chiem Hoa, Lam Binh, Ham Yen, Yen Son, Son Duong, etc.
