Shearing occurs annually for most sheep breeds. Our shearer used hand-blades for the process, which allows a little more wool to be left & seems less stressful for the sheep. Please note that these sheep are not covered during the year, so they are susceptible to VM & heavy lanolin in the fleece. Each fleece is skirted heavily, though some VM is inevitable. Though our flock has recently been dispersed, fleece & roving from other shepherds of rare breeds - Leicester Longwool, Karakul, Navajo Churro, & Jacob - will be offered as available.

Fleece is only sold in increments as shown, & roving is sold in 4-ounce increments. “Shave ‘Em to Save ‘Em Program” (SM2SM) are noted as “SM2SM Eligible.”
