100% Drenthe Heath wool raised on 'It Fryske Gea Natural Reserve in Bakkeveen, The Netherlands. Drenthe Heath Sheep are vital to the conservation of their indigenous Dutch heathlands, a rare habitat containing a delicate balance of biotopes with particularly high value for wildlife biodiversity. Over the past 200 years, 75% of heathlands have been lost to intensive agriculture, development, and climate change. As these threats persist, Drenthe Heath Sheep maintain this protected landscape at 'It Fryske Gea by grazing, fertilizing, and the carrying seeds of the future heathlands in their woollen fleeces. 

Handspun in the Netherlands in collaboration with Studio Claudy Jongstra, supporting the preservation of traditional craft techniques.

Cultivating botanical dye plants with biodynamic farming methods prioritizes the holistic restoration and enhancement of soil health, biodiversity, and ecosystem resilience. 

Loads’ seasonal harvests of colour plants from a growing network of biodynamic farm partners are delivered to the Dye Lab at Studio Claudy Jongstra, where they become colourful dye baths for Loads Collection textiles. This small batch dye process, informed by more than 20 years of plant-based pigment research, revives ancient colour-making recipes and techniques.
