Check out the book that inspired us all, Fibershed, available at your local library and on Bookshop.org!
"A call to action to everyone involved in textiles - from handcrafted to haute coutre - Fibershed advocates for a focuse on 'the source of the raw material, the transparency with which it is converted into clothing, and the connectivity among all parts, from soil to skin and back to soil.' Burgess educates us about political ecology of clothing and challenges us ot think, spend, and dress with our healthy and the good of the planet in mind."
