Faribault Mill

The company and its work

Faribault Mill has been producing wool and cotton goods in Minnesota since 1865. It remains one of America's few vertically integrated mills, taking raw fiber through multiple stages of production under one roof. Its blankets have served everyone from families and westward pioneers to American troops during the World Wars. More than 160 years later, the mill remains an extraordinary example of American textile knowledge surviving in the place where it was built.
