Organization
Fibershed
Also known as: Fibershed Cooperative
A nonprofit organization developing regional, regenerative textile systems — soil-to-soil supply chains for clothing and fiber. Founded by Rebecca Burgess after her 2010 experiment of wearing only clothing made within 150 miles of her home. Operates a Climate Beneficial wool program with verified soil-carbon outcomes, supports a global network of regional fibersheds, and is one of the most-developed working examples of bioregional production at scale.

Why this listing
The textile supply chain is one of the most extractive industries on the planet — and one of the least-discussed. Fibershed is the canonical organization showing what the alternative looks like in working form, not concept form. Bioregional, regenerative, soil-to-soil. Listed here as a knowledge-care institution that holds the framework other producers can plug into.
