    Stillwater, MN. The Greater Stillwater Chamber of Commerce welcomed local business, Chopper Mill, to the Chamber and the community with a ribbon cutting celebration on November 8th, 2022. The event took place at 310 1/2 Main Street South, Stillwater, MN.  Owner Jill Kaufenberg, along with her family, friends, Greater Stillwater Chamber ambassadors and staff were there to join in the celebration.

    Chopper Mill, Inc. is an e-commerce, woman founded children’s mitten company in Stillwater, Minnesota. When kids feel comfortable and confident outdoors, they love winter more—and get more out of it. That’s what inspired Chopper Mill. They are building the world’s best mitten company for kids, crafting products worthy of the amazing people they protect. Their mittens are designed for generations of outdoor action, made to withstand anything northern winters throw at us.

    It’s little things that make a mitten wonderful. Intelligent features like extra-deep cuffs that keep wrists free of snow and moisture. Easy-clip carabiners that snap to backpacks so kids and gloves stay connected. Add a velcro patch to your pair to make it your own: from a simple name or initials to an eye-catching visual statement. Made with premium materials and 3M thinsulate, these are mittens made to last. 

    Chopper Mill understands the frustration of lost mittens—the frozen hands, family arguments, and headaches to replace. Because missing mittens happen, they have created the re/PAIR™ Plan. The first single Chopper Mill you lose, they will mail you a replacement including free shipping! Additionally, you can always buy single mittens at any time if your child loses another without having to buy another pair.

    Chopper Mill’s mission is to make a positive impact on families through their products and contributions to organizations that set out to better our children's future. Chopper Mill is a proud national brand alliance member of Protect Our Winters. Additionally, they support The Great Northern who celebrates our cold, creative winters through ten days of diverse programming that invigorates mind and body.

    Dedicated to the snow angels and snowball slingers, the igloo builders, sledders, and ski-run shredders the queens of the mountain and kings of the rink, from crisp mornings at the bus stop to long nights around the bonfire. In furries and polar winds, squalls and snowmageddon, Chopper Mill stands with winter kids, at home or outside whatever the weather.
