Almost all the fleeces from the 2017 clip have been sold, but good news: the sheep are busily growing more lovely fleeces!! We hope to have them shorn a bit earlier this year in October, if possible.
I have been unable to source good quality sheep coats and I haven't had time to wash and repair our existing coats this year so most of the sheep have remained uncovered. The fleeces will have a dirtier tip than usual but hopefully we'll get them off the sheep before the spring grasses go to seed, to avoid seed contamination.
