Organic Wool Mattresses
Our ECO-Pure Wool mattresses use patented technology to provide pressure relief and temperature regulation. The natural wool fibers resist allergens and flame hazards without chemical treatments. Each mattress is handmade in Wisconsin using 100% organic cotton covers and locally sourced wool.
Mattress Renewal Program
This exclusive service restores wool mattresses to like-new condition every three years. We clean existing wool, add fresh fibers, and replace cotton covers for half the cost of new bedding. The 24-hour turnaround ensures minimal disruption to customers' sleep routines.
Organic Cotton Bedding
Our certified organic cotton products include sheets, pillowcases, and comforter covers. Grown and milled in the USA without synthetic chemicals, these breathable textiles complement wool bedding systems. The unbleached cotton maintains natural fibers that resist irritation for sensitive sleepers.
Wool Pet Beds
Designed for animal companions, these beds use the same ECO-Pure Wool technology as human bedding. The organic cotton covers resist odors and allergens while providing temperature regulation. Available in multiple sizes for various pet breeds.
Amish Wood Furniture
We offer sustainably made wooden furniture crafted by Amish artisans. The solid wood construction uses traditional joinery techniques for durability. Each piece complements our organic bedding collection while supporting heritage woodworking traditions.

Desperate for a good night's sleep, my wool mattress topper gives me the comfort to sleep deeper without hip, neck or back pain. The wool takes extra care, but worth it. I have enjoyed it for over the 6 months months now. I really appreciate it is a locally sourced family owned small business with organic products.

Report
I purchased an Eastern King mattress 5 years ago from this company. Plus a topper. They both completely deflated/flattened in the middle within 6 months. 6 months and we literally roll in a hole. We didn't have the money to have them restuffed 6 months after we made a nearly 3k purchase. Now, when I can afford to have it restuffed, I'm not sure I trust the company based on previous reviews, as well as the fact that my original purchase product failed so miserably.

There are other organic wool bed companies that offer excellent customer service and high quality products produced in the

I have been trying to work with Susan for the last month or so and am frustrated and feel the need to write this review so others can be forewarned. I have used her toppers for many years because I have lyme disease and have a problem with pain. The first topper was great and lasted many years before I refreshed it. The last topper I received last year only lasted a few months before all the wool shifted. My boyfriend was the first to notice and he never complains. He couldn't sleep well with that end near the top of the bed since it was not level. It was clearly missing wool or the wool had shifted
