2009 NH Sheep & Wool festival

http://www.nhswga.com/

We've had a few changes for this year's festival. Dan Korngibel from the Yarn Farm has retired and will not be supplying our customers with sheep equipment. He will be 'replaced' with Jay Ward and Sydell Sheep & Goat Equipment as noted in the announcement below. We, also, will not have Dave Dziengelewski from Surprize Acres Livestock Supply as he has relocated to Florida. You can still call him toll free at 1-888-9LISTER to order. Shari & I are trying to locate a local shear blade/comb sharpener to come to the festival. We have a lot of people who came out to take advantage of Dave's sharpening service and we are trying.

Festival is coming up quick and we will have a few new vendors this year. Come on out and see what's new. And please make a point of stopping in at our booth in the Robie building near the vendor auction and say Hello!

Wilson's Shoppe

When you come into Warren, NH you are greeted by a missile in the center of town.

Isn't this cool? The following blog gives more information about the missile in the center of town.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warren,_New_Hampshire This is a quaint little town in the upper 1/3 of the state. This is back in February when we dropped off our products. She has since opened and sold a couple of hats for us. Hopefully she will get busier during the summer months. Pat Wilson, the owner, has put a lot of time and effort into this shoppe. If you are in the area, stop in and buy a cup of Green Mountain coffee and peruse the shoppe. We hope to go back up by mid-May to take more pictures.

The last of the fleeces have been posted

For some reason Google has limited my picture storage. I use blogger to post fleeces and farm new because it is free. And now that Google has gotten involved, they want me to pay for extra picture storage on all of my blogs. So...anything before the beginning of 2008 has been deleted from the blogs. Some day if we ever get big enough, and trust me I am not in any hurry, we will pay for a true web site. But, in the meantime, I thank you all for reading our blogs and any purchase you have made, or will make.
Remember, all purchases go right back to the farm for grain & hay for the sheep, grass seed for their pastures, and hopefully this year to help pay for the property tax. Thank you ALL for your time!! And your interest in reading our blogs.

Off to enjoy the sunshine and skirt some uncoated fleeces!! These are destined for roving.

OH!! If you get a chance...read this website. It is very informative for any of us who spin. And she covers 3 of my breeds. http://www.spindlicity.com/2009_01/big%20box.html
