Sheep Shearing Day

It's that time of year again - the sheep are ready for shearing! Join us to see how we get wool off the sheep and learn what people in the 1800s could do with it.

Shearing begins at 11:30 am and continues every 20 minutes. The last sheep will be sheared around 3:30 pm.

Check out fiber arts (including spinning and dyeing), blacksmithing, and bake oven demonstrations throughout the day. Be sure to join in on storytime with a ranger at 12:00 pm and 2:00 pm. Complete the Sheep Shearing Day Junior Ranger sheet to earn a special sticker.

We’ll kick-off the day by starting our week-long spring charcoal burn. Colliers will light the pile at 11:00 am.

This event is free and family-friendly.

Event may be modified or cancelled in the case of inclement weather.
