From Plants to Pants

I've told you that my dad is a cotton farmer in Southwest Kansas before, right?

If you missed that memo, check it out. 

Have you ever wondered where your jeans really came from? Plains Cotton Cooperative Association is the only fully vertically integrated company in the world that offers total traceability. With every bail of cotton produced and sold by a cooperative farmer, it can be traced back to that farm.

They put out a neat video explaining more about this vertical integration here.

Jeans on a Journey

I hope you enjoy learning a little more about this very important fiber crop. I am so excited about a Boots On The Ground post that will be coming out soon about a cotton farmer from Kansas.

Enjoy!
