Faribault Woolen Mill is more than a wool manufacturer - it's a piece of history. Their mill endures the test of time as one of the last vertical woolen mills in the country. Built in 1892, their mill today holds a blend of century-old machines next to modern technology - a visual representation of this iconic wool company.
Originally founded in 1865 (the year the Civil War ended) Faribault has gone from crafting woolen blankets for westward pioneers to modern day goods and accessories. Their 150-year story and woolen mill is intricately woven into America's history. Many of their products today like the Foot Soldier Military Wool Blanket is largely the same.
Today they're known for their woolen products, high quality goods and undeniable comfort. Why wool? Because wool is a renewable and natural resource. Also, "scrap" wool can be recycled to be used in new pieces and the product itself is biodegradable - talk about a win-win!
