Visit the farm for the MAINE FIBER ARTS TOUR AUGUST 7,8 & 9th from 10-3

   One of the many delights of owning llamas and Shetland sheep is the array of colors displayed in the field. Both the llamas and shetlands come in a range of rich, natural colors, coat patterns and fiber types. We have found the Shetland wool to be a perfect match with the llama fiber and the blending of the two together makes for an extremely warm, soft and springy yarn.  

We strive to produce fine, clean fiber from our llamas and Shetland sheep. Our cleaning and shearing procedures are constantly being refined to provide a fiber that is vegetable and dust free and a delight to handle. All of the animal shearing and fiber cleaning is done on the farm and if not processed here, is delivered to a small local fiber mill for processing into roving or yarn.

The chickens provide eggs for our egg yolk soap, as well as a steady supply of customers who stop by for a dozen or two.

Black Jack is a favorite to all who visit the farm. He is a gentle giant who loves attention.
