Fibershed began in California as a non-profit movement to connect regional fiber farmers, natural dyers, mills, designers, and wearers in a "farm-to-closet" value chain. The concept defines a strategic geography for fiber (a "fibershed"), similar to a foodshed, within which raw materials and textile production are linked... biodegradable textiles produced and eventually composted within the same bioregion, blending traditional crafts with innovation to meet local needs sustainably.
