NEW SEASON'S FLEECES!

NEW SEASON'S FLEECES!
Shorn 27th October 2013

Unfortunately I've had to increase prices this year. Due to the dry summer and late autumn rains we had to supplement the sheep's pasture feed with oats and hay for most of the year. This is a costly exercise and unfortunately results in the fleeces costing more to produce. I hope you'll understand.

All fleeces were coated unless otherwise stated. Weights and prices listed are approximate as all fleeces will be re-skirted and re-weighed before dispatch. Accurate weights and prices will be posted in blue as available.
