Who We Support: Husk Brooms

Tia Tumminello of Husk Brooms is a new, local Pittsburgh, PA artisan we are simply thrilled to support. Honoring traditional techniques, she handcrafts brushes and brooms that embrace the past while looking ahead to the future. Valuing the journey of each broom from start to finish, Tia’s sacred walks for gathering materials inspire each handmade creation in a new and inventive way. Each brush and broom is hand-tied and made functional for a lifetime of use.

Husk Brooms embraces sustainability through mindful material sourcing and prioritizes a minimal waste system. Recently, Husk Brooms began working with local farms to help grow the main crop used in broom making, broomcorn.
