Event information / Description:
Get a close-up view of how sheep are shorn and how to process our wool. Guests can learn about natural dyes, how to wash wool, and visit our farm to feed our organic sheep.
Graciano, the sheep shearer, will demonstrate how the sheep are freed from their winter woolies. Participants will also be able to see what happens to the fleece once it leaves the sheep (washing, carding, dyeing, and spinning)
