This company is about wool–sleeping on it and under it, cuddling with it, and loving the wool and the sheep and the land. Founder Eliana Jantz has been working with wool as long as I’ve been writing about natural products and her daughter, Sarah now owns the company. Eliana led the development of Eco Wool, “a collaboration which involves the sheep growers, wool processors, product makers and promoters in gradually developing an infrastructure which ensures environmentally friendly and sustainable practices and fair prices to the woolgrower.” All within a few hundred miles distance, the sheep are pastured, the wool is milled, and the products are sewn by local women in a renovated storefront, all in site of majestic Mt. Shasta in northern California. Outfit your entire bed with their unique heirloom quality wool mattresses (all-wool, latex/wool, and innerspring/wool), wool mattress topper, comforter, and pillows and you won’t need to count sheep to get a good night’s sleep anymore! They also offer solid wood bed frames, an array of organic cotton sheeting and accessories for your natural bedroom. Shepherd’s Dream recently has expanded and now has a showroom in Ashland, Oregon. They love visitors and offer excellent customer service. Be sure to tell them “Debra sent me.”
