Fibershed Ireland, in partnership with Ánam Arann, has launched an exciting joint initiative called the Wear The Land Collective — a project dedicated to reviving the tradition of Aran sweaters and celebrating Irish wool heritage in the Northeastern United States.

Together, they’re working to make Irish wool more visible, accessible, and appreciated across the globe.

As part of this effort, they’re inviting sheep farmers to share details about their flocks and add their farms to a growing Irish Wool Directory. This directory will help connect farmers, makers, and consumers who value local, sustainable wool. The directory will be accessible via the Wear The Land Collective website, and you can also choose to also be featured on Fibershed Ireland’s website’s interactive map – https://fibreshedireland.ie/map/
