The Illinois Green Pastures Fiber Co-Op, formed in July 2006, is an enthusiastic group of fiber producers working together to market their products. With nearly thirty local farms and growing, they feature all natural, humanely-raised fibers, rovings, yarns, mattress covers, pillows and gift items. Their products are marketed through their website and at Esther's Place in Big Rock, Illinois. Esther's Place also offers retreats, classes and parties in knitting, felting, dyeing, spinning weaving, sustainable farming and organic cooking in their Victorian home. Laugh, linger and be inspired with the best natural fiber in Illinois and a fiber arts community at Esther's Place!
