About Faribault Woolen Mills: Today, in a historic mill nestled along the Cannon River in Minnesota, a 157-year-old story is still being woven. Faribault Mill endures as one of the last vertical woolen mills in America. Here, fifth generation craftspeople take raw wool and create blankets, throws, scarves and accessories of remarkable comfort and quality. Irreplaceable century-old machinery stands side by side with modern technology in our "new" mill, which was built in 1892.
We can't wait to see you there!
