Annual Sheep Shearing Day!

Come visit the farm! Our Annual Sheep Shearing Day offers a close look at an important part of farm life. Watch Jeff of Buckwheat Blossom Farm (learn more about Jeff here) shear the winter coats off our girls as we prepare for lambing season.

This year, sheep from both Misty Brook Farm and Golden Fleece will be sheared. Golden Fleece is a small flock that lives alongside the Misty Brook sheep and is operated by Becca, a member of the Misty Brook Farm staff. The two flocks are cared for together year-round, and shearing day is a shared seasonal milestone. Becca will be on hand throughout the day to answer questions and talk sheep with visitors.

Bring your family, visit the farm store, and meet the farm animals. Cocoa and other snacks will be available, all made with our own organic ingredients.
