FAQs

Upland Fiber Co.

About

Upland Fiber Co. is an independent, gay-owned yarn company focused on creating beautiful, all-natural fiber products in collaboration with local farmers and artisans in the US, as well as supporting a diverse community of fiber artists.

Why "Upland"?

Upland has three meanings for us:

  • In a very literal sense it is alluding to a northerly direction. On the east coast, heading upland would mean heading away from the sea towards higher ground. Upland speaks to where our very first yarn is coming from here in the northeast.
  • In a more metaphorical sense, Upland refers to heading toward a safer space, which I think is something that we are all in search of these days.
  • And finally, Upland is a low key reference to the Broadway musical Wicked ("Galinda Upland, of the Upper Uplands"), in which Upland Fiber Co. founder, Michael Seelbach, was an original Broadway cast member.
