We not only make the world’s most comfortable hammocks, but through training and sustainable job creation, we empower our weavers and their families to break the cycle of poverty and build a brighter future.
Finding a hammock you can truly relax in didn’t happen overnight. It started with a chance discovery while on vacation, and took a lot of hard work (and a lot of hanging around) to bring the softest, most comfortable, and thoughtfully crafted hammocks to your backyard.
Each individual Yellow Leaf hammock is handwoven with the utmost precision and care by the expert craftswomen of the Mlabri Tribe – “the people of the yellow leaves” – in the hills of Northern Thailand. Across three weaving communities, we are working to create jobs for mothers and build a foundation for positive community transformation.
Creating jobs for women is especially important for community transformation. Research shows that women will spend up to 90% of their income on health, nutrition, and education for their families.
In 2011, while on vacation in Thailand, our co-founder Joe embarked on an impromptu motorcycle adventure that led him to discover the world’s most comfortable hammock hanging outside a hut on a tiny island.
He bought as many as he could fit in his backpack and headed home, ready to turn his vacation dream into a reality. Joe teamed up with his now-wife Rachel to establish Yellow Leaf—bringing a curated collection of beautifully crafted, ultra-comfortable hammocks to the masses, while giving back to the original crafters of the world’s most comfortable hammocks.
