Kindred Coast was founded by Hannah Fairbrother 10 years ago on Salt Spring Island, BC. She started small, hand-sewing her own designs from recycled materials and selling at the local farmers' market. From there, the business grew, and she expanded into screen printing sustainable T-shirts for men and women. Since then, Kindred Coast has gained a strong following on the West Coast. Their prints are outdoor- and locally-themed.
When designing the images, Hannah draws from the heart, depicting the things she loves about living on Vancouver Island. Once the design is finalized, we burn the screen in our studio. For printing, we use only eco-friendly, water-based inks. All of our clothing is designed by us, then knit, dyed, cut, and sewn in Canada. We choose sustainable materials such as organic cotton, Tencel, recycled water bottles, and hemp.
We respectfully acknowledge that the Filberg Festival takes place on the unceded traditional territory of the K'omoks First Nation, Gila 'kasla...Hay ch q'a'.
