Straw hat and gathering apron filled with flowers and vegetables.

Hunter-Gatherer Aprons

was born out of a desire to help reduce the amount of textile in landfills. Our reversible aprons are upcycled from fabrics that would have been discarded because of small defects or discolorations. We take these textiles, find the largest and best parts, and turn into the lovely aprons here. We leave the smallest amount possible for the fill.

Gathering apron filled with freshly picked pears.

Our upcycled aprons

are sturdy with robust, not always straight, stitching. They are made of upholstery grade fabric for maximum durability. Their extended waistband accommodates a wide range of sizes. Our aprons are fully reversible and can be worn 4 ways.









Various fabrics folded on a red surface.

The fabrics

come to us randomly. This means each apron is unique and no two are exactly alike. When one is gone, it's gone.





Hands holding a full gathering apron.

They're the extra hand

you've wished you had. The pouch you've envied kangaroos about. Get one for yourself. They're perfect for the home or community gardener harvesting produce, the parent picking up toys, or the casual forager gathering loot.
