Telling the stories of our food and textiles.

This is a personal mission. It started with the closure of Sarah's great-grandfather's textile mills, when cheaply made, synthetic, imported textiles overwhelmed the American textile industry. America has a place in the future of the global textile and agriculture industries, just as textiles and agriculture played vital roles in American history. Food and Fiber US exists to share knowledge about the agriculture behind sustainable American products, past, present, and future.  

Our nation's deep history of independence and innovation leadership is showing the way to a better future through a return to sustainable, local textile and agriculture industries. Food and Fiber US actively engages with local organizations and initiatives to support agriculture education and promote local food systems. 

When you visit our channels or purchase from our shop, you're supporting our mission of sharing the stories of our farmers and sustainable handicrafts and pastimes. Together, we can cultivate a stronger community. Thank you for being part of American agriculture's regional and sustainable movement. 

I am an educator and hand spinner with a deep passion for agriculture and sustainability. With a master’s degree in Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communications from Texas A&M University at College Station, I have spent over 15 years honing my skills, developing my knowledge, and exploring the intricacies of local textile and food production.

I'm one of the youngest hand spinners I've met, and this project is one way I'm sharing the ancient and sacred craft of hand spinning with the next generation.

I believe in the power of soil and handcrafts as ways to heal and grow as a person and in our community. I strive to incorporate this gratitude for our planet into my personal and professional life. If I’m not working in this space, I spend my time as a mom and wife. 

I'm always eager to learn and grow as a human being, and I love discovering and sharing the ways we’re all connected. Feel free to reach out if you’d like to chat or collaborate!
