Dear Customers,
This morning we sheared our sheep for the upcoming warm summer months. You may find it interesting to know that the breeding ewes (mothers) are shorn twice a year, now and in January, to help with lambing, while the other sheep are only shorn once a year before summer. Pictures are attached!
This year we kept the best wool, and plan on selling it for anyone who would like to card and spin their own yarn.
There is a garage sale Thursday, June 6- Saturday, June 8 at October Moon Farm with interesting finds, Juicy Lucy clothing and antiques. The address is 1148 Bell Street, Chagrin Falls.
There are 5 egg cartons in the garage, so come buy your eggs!
Fun Fact: One sheep produces eight to ten pounds of wool per year, enough to make a man's suit. One pound of wool can make ten miles of yarn.
Thanks,
Harry and Lauren Hawkes
