Warmer spring weather means its sheep shearing time on the farm.

But what to do with all that wool?

Learn about the time honored tradition of wool felting.

We’ll start by learning how to “card” the raw wool into soft fiber for spinning or felting.

Afterwards, we’ll try our hand making twisted wool bracelets and felt balls to be used for farm-fun necklaces.

Wool, wood beads and decorative string will be provided, but feel free to bring anything special of your own to add to your necklace.

Afterwards meet our three woolly sheep and feed them a snack!

Recommended for ages 6-9 but all are welcome.

An adult must attend but there is no additional charge.

Pre-registration is required.
