The Dehradun metacluster comprises craft clusters lying in the Garhwal region. Dehradun is situated in the fertile Doon valley at the foot of the Shivaliks. The best basmati, long-grained and fragrant rice comes from here. The town is an important educational centre and many offices of the central and state government like the Oil and Natural Gas Commission and Forest Research Institute are located here. Mussoorie is said to be the queen of the Garhwal hills. It straddles a ridge in the Garhwal Himalayas- a region which is developing into a major tourism destination. The holy River Ganga is visible from one end of the ridge and River Jamuna from the other. Uttarkashi is home to the Gujjar and Bhotia tribes, both agrarian pastoralists. Women of the Bhotia community weave heavy woolen textiles for their own use. Pauri Garhwal is rich in deodar and papri wood. In Chamoli district, Angora rabbits are being reared. Rabbit hair is spun with sheep wool to make yarn for handloom weaving centres. The newly formed statehood has brought independence as well as challenges to Uttaranchal- of building a basic infrastructure of development of the region and for improving the quality of people’s lives. The region has several crafts based on plant fibres-bamboo, lantana, nettle and ringaal. These can be vital for linking organic agriculture with crafts, as conservation of forest resource is one of the regions chief concerns.
