Hay wagon time. Family did great. 118 bales off the wagon and into the barn! Hard work but a good feeling! #fiberfarm #farmlife #endofsummer #haywagon #farmraisedyarn #wedidittogether #sheepandgoats #woolandmohair

My shop will be open along with 3 more stops and 3 guest artists. I always look forward to FAST. It’s nice to be part of a community.

So excited to be an Entrant. This time I’m not a vendor or a judge; I’m just a good ole fashioned fiber enthusiast entering hand spun yarn in the fair.
Also all of my entries have fiber raised on my farm, I did the dye work and carded locally.
