The Mill was a full process operation, purchasing wool fleeces from the local sheep ranchers. The raw wool was cleaned, dyed, carded, spun, woven and finished, all onsite. The building still houses the vintage machinery used for production, which is highly prized both for its historical significance and for its artistic imagery.The Friends of Baron Woolen Mill wish to promote and operate the historic Baron Woolen Mill in order to preserve the heritage of the wool blanket product it has been renowned for since the 19th Century. Originally built in 1869-1870, the Mill was part of the Brigham City Manufacturing and Mercantile Association, also known as the Cooperative. Although the Mill has had several additions, the original stone building is still highly visible and will be utilized as part of the living museum.
