This linen is organically grown in Belgium, and then spun and dyed in Italy. Like all Quince & Co yarns, environmental impact and sustainability during production is heavily considered.
From the brand:
"Fine linen is not grown in commercial quantities in the US, so we went to the heart of historic linen production, Belgium, to find the finest quality GOTS-certified organic linen we could find. Flax, the plant from which linen is derived, is a hearty crop that generally needs few pesticides, little water, and little to no fertilizer. We chose organic fiber to ensure that there were no toxic chemicals used at any point, from growing to processing to dyeing, and that the workers along the way are treated fairly."
