The Official Home of the Bernie Mittens
We are excited to announce our partnership with Jen Ellis to produce Vermont Mittens, the mittens famously worn by Vermont's Senator, Bernie Sanders at the 2021 inauguration. A portion of the proceeds to benefit Outright Vermont.
About Bernie Mittens
Meet Jen Ellis & Her Vermont Mittens
Jen is our neighbor and a second-grade teacher in Essex Junction, VT. She and a partner began making Vermont Mittens years ago to sell locally. Each one is unique as they are made from retired wool sweaters, they are finished with a warm fleece lining made from recycled plastic (similar to the stuffing in our Bears!).
