Starter Flock Special


Tansy on the front lawn

Tansy, a yearling ewe, helped the flock mow the front lawn.

You can start your own flock of registered Icelandic sheep from Queso Cabeza Farm with two ewes/ewe lambs, an unrelated ram/ram lamb, and a wether for $1200.  Add a guard llama for an additional $400. 

Availability of starter flocks is limited - act fast!

Great Lambs Still Available!

Roving Blends Now Available


Roving

Because we did not have time to blow the dust and debris out of the llama fleeces before we sheared them this year, we had them blended with some of our Icelandic wool into lovely spinner's rovings.  They are all a feast for the senses.  We will post pictures soon, but contact us for details and availability if you just can't wait!


Felters: Roving Batts Just for YOU!

Felted Black Grey Rug Icelandic wool makes durable, beautiful felt, and the shorter staple of the spring clip makes especially eager felting fiber.  So, this year we had our spring sheep fleeces processed into roving batts, ready to be made into your favorite felting projects - whether rugs, clothing, accessories, or decor.  Colors include white, cream, beige, grey, and black with a bit of silver.


4th Annual Fiber Arts and Animals Festival

Our festival now has a website!  Make sure to view www.fiberartfest.com for the latest information regarding our festival.  This one day event will again be held on the grounds of Side Track Ice Cream in Marshall, Michigan from 10 AM to 5 PM on June 14, 2008.  This is an outdoor event, rain or shine.

 

Exhibitors had a great time sharing their know-how with the crowd of approximately 500.  The weather was perfect, and it was a terrific day of spinning, weaving, wet felting, needle felting, grooming, and critters (llamas, sheep, goats, alpacas and angora rabbits).

 

Contact us if you are interested in being an exhibitor (providing fiber education and showcasing your own fiber art and animals to an interested public) at

Fiber Arts and Animals Festival 2008, slated for June 14 at Sidetrack Ice Cream in Marshall, Michigan.

 

We are especially interested in adding angora goats, and other breeds of wool sheep, as well as knitters, crocheters, tatters, bobbin-lace makers, and other fiber arts and animals not previously represented at FAAF.


The 2008 Calhoun County Llama Club

If you would like to learn to show llamas in obstacle and halter classes, we can help! Join the Calhoun County Llama Club, which is open to all ages from grade school to grandparents.  It's a great family-time activity.

 

Drop us a line using our Contact page, by phone, or e-mail if you or a child in your family is interested.  All children must have parental permission.

 

We are not a 4-H club, so you do not need to be in 4-H to join or show, but llamas can be done as an independent 4-H project.

 

Training schedules are flexible and start in March!
