Our Story

Started in 2012 as a custom sewn clothing shop

Harvest & Mill was born out of a need for locally sewn and USA grown organic clothing. We believe that there is a better way to make clothing. By supporting our USA organic cotton farmers, American heritage mills and our local sewing community, we are rebuilding supply chains based on ecological and ethical principles.  

Truly Made in America

All of our organic cotton is grown in the USA. All of our yarn is spun and knit in the USA. We independently sew our own clothing in Oakland, Berkeley and San Francisco - all within 20 miles of our studio in Berkeley. 

Our Fabric

Our 100% USA organic cotton fabric is made exclusively for us. We directly commission American heritage mills to spin, knit and finish our fabric. We can trace our materials all the way back to the organic cotton farms. 

Natural and Dyes

All of our designs are available in our natural undyed unbleached clean finish fabric. Our naturally-dyed clothing comes from farmers and dye artists in Indiana and California. Our low-impact black color is made with fiber reactive dyes in the USA.

Compostable

From our organic fabric to our packaging, all our materials are compostable or recyclable. We don't use plastic bags or mailers. Your items come wrapped in compostable tissue paper and a compostable (or re-usable) kraft paper mailer. 

We are proud members of Fibershed
