Madre Linen

MADRE is a movement. Whether it’s gathering for a meal with cherished friends or tucking yourself into bed, MADRE honors the simple, necessary, and universal delights of food and rest. MADRE is focused on becoming the first “seed to napkin” domestic linen company, by reshoring the domestic flax economy here in Oregon. As a feminist brand, we are committed to celebrating the feminine and disrupting the patriarchy, using our business and the linen products we create to educate and question capitalism, choosing collaboration over competition and regenerative over extractive practices. Please find us at May we all eat. May we all rest. MADRE began with the simple premise: to create linen home essentials that are as close to 100% domestic as possible, meaning: grown, processed, woven, and sewn here in the United States. We envision this as “seed to table.” We soon learned that the long-dormant American linen industry is being rebuilt as we speak, and we are eager for its return and honored to be a part of welcoming flax back to Oregon and the PNW, where the majority of it will be grown. In this interim period, before Oregon linen is available (target goal is by 2032), MADRE is committed to a transparent supply chain, offering Oeko-Tex certified, Belgian-grown linen that is woven in a Lithuanian mill that runs on green energy. All of our products are sewn domestically. Until Oregon linen is rolling off the looms, each and every MADRE purchase will serve to signal to the farmers, state, and myriad other linen industry stakeholders that the demand for Oregon linen is steadily growing. Linen napkins are the foundation of MADRE, and we are proud to be slowly growing a deeper offering of tabletop and kitchen goods, bedding, some apparel, and other select home essentials.
