Waning Winter

This time of year we can't help but think about Spring and Summer.. Snow storms, ice and cold temperatures mandate the turning of our thoughts to a warmer reality. Even when some of us love the winter and the winter activities there's a glimmer of hope for a sunny day.

The ART of Shepherding

Day in, day out, caring for sheep is a long term committment, just as parenting children is a long term committment. Our flock of unique and rare breeds of woollies are constantly teaching and guiding me on my hooven path, into the future, working on land improvements, working with wool and awakening my creative expression. The tactile experince of wool is a healing force that can't be denied.
