Yellow Leaf Hammocks Information

Yellow Leaf makes world-changing hammocks. Our "ridiculously comfy" handwoven hammocks are bringing bliss to our customers and building a brighter future for our weaving communities. Yellow Leaf Hammocks is a mission-driven, market-based social enterprise dedicated to supporting high-wage weaving jobs for artisans in the hill tribe communities of rural northern Thailand. By creating global sales channels for handwoven eco-luxe hammocks, Yellow Leaf is empowering margnizalized hill tribes to alleviate poverty, agitate for social justice and combat environmental degradation. Yellow Leaf’s weavers are among the 1.2 million hill tribe members in Thailand who exist on society’s lowest rung. Many are denied civil rights and social services as aliens in their own country. This makes them especially vulnerable to exploitation, including human trafficking, child labor and indentured servitude. Most subsist in extreme poverty on less that US$1 a day.
