At Riverslea Farm, we raise and buy lambs and fleeces
for our year-round meat and wool business. Our flock is mostly Border
Leicester/Dorset cross. Three black Leicester rams live with the girls and
about half of our ewes are black. We have a sprinkling of other breeds
including Tunis, Cheviot, Cotswold and Southdown.
We work with our wool and hides from the sheep to the finished product. This
helps us understand what it takes to make quality products. We select only
our best fleeces for spinners and the mill, then we skirt hard. We visit
our
mills regularly and listen carefully to their advice.
Finally, we listen to our customers. Washable lambskins and wool blankets
have become family traditions for many of our customers. In 1995 we produced
our first yarn. Since then we have added variety and color to the yarn
inventory. We now produce roving, batts and felt in natural and hand-dyed
colors.
Visit our shop or call for mail orders. We’re open daily 8 to 6 year round.
Call ahead or just drop in.
