Made in Canada
Prairie Breeze Folk Arts Studio
In short
Yes, Prairie Breeze Folk Arts Studio makes its products in Canada, in Winnipeg, MB. It makes handmade brooms, hearth brooms and whisks. The company is Canadian owned.
Broomsquire Amina Haswell makes these brooms by hand in Winnipeg, binding broom corn she grows on her own acreage or buys from North American growers. Handles are often foraged from Manitoba forests, so no two look alike. A larger broom takes four to five days, with drying time before the head is stitched flat and shaped.
